I just got diagnosed over Christmas and have a few questions. Can AIH be passed to others sexully? Did I get this genetically or did some other virus trigger it? And it is true I must remain 100% alcochol free right? Thanks Welcome Tim! A virus did not cause this and you cannot transmit it to anyone. Your immune system is attacking your liver as if it were a foreign object. If your doctor told you to be 100% alcohol free, then yes, you must remain that way.

You can be a guiding light for those new people who, like you will have only a mild case. Please don't feel like you don't fit in because your an important piece to our LiverSupport puzzle. Thanks Joan, My name is Cheryl (in Ohio). I went into a spontaneous remission with my first flare, 6 years ago. I was undiagnosed with AIH that time, they blamed the problems on my pregnancy.

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2003 Report Share Posted February 9, 2003 In a message dated 2/8/03 10:26:45 PM Eastern Standard Time, writes: Right now, my biggest concern is not feeling like myself. So often I feel like I am hearing myself say things and wonder why or how those thoughts have come from me. At times I don't even want to associate with others; I sit in my classroom during my 20 minute lunch and check the messages this group posts in the morning. , I hope your blue weekend is over and you are back to yourself soon. Thanks for your reply. Cheryl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
