Hi there all,

I just now joined this forum, it's alot different than the PBCers forum. My question is: Has anybody been diagnosed with PBC and found out that your elevated liver enzymes were because you had hidden celiac sprue and once on the diet for only 4 weeks, all liver enzymes that have been elevated for a year went back to normal. My liver biopsy is normal. I was just curious about the AMA. My regular AMA is normal but the AMA-M2 is slightly positive. Doctor thinks it is a false poisitve from the immunoglobulins from celiac disease that are binding with the mitochondria. Is anybody else out there familiar with all this. Would appreciate any feedback.

Thanks,

Kathy in AZ

There are quite a few of us who have elevated liver enzymes before diagnosis. The autoimmune process can effect any organ and for some the liver is effected. I am glad they found the cause before more damage was done. Once the anitbodies clear your enzyme levels should also go back to normal levels, an effect you have seen for yourself. What the exact mechanism is for this I don't know.

I was thinking primary biliary cirrhosis (sp). Could be wrong though.

      Congrats! Can you share the recipe? We just picked up a bread maker from an estate sale and are experimenting.
