Hi Kara How are you feeling
@karacole23042 жыл бұрын
I am currently being treated as a patient with ICP without my liver or bile acids test showing it. My doctor listened to my story and my symptoms alone. I’m so grateful to him. I am currently 32 weeks with twins and will be induced in 33 days as a result!! I cannot wait to stop itching! Nothing is helping it right now and it gets absolutely dreadful at night. 😭

I was diagnosed with ICP and as of October 1, 2023, ICP now has a new ICD-10 code 026.64 with further designations for trimester of onset. Medical professionals will now be able to accurately document ICP cases in patients’ medical charts, marking a significant step forward in the recognition and management of this condition.

I never got diagnosed but I know I had it. My bile level wasn't high enough to be diagnosed. I itched all over and was even told I had elevated liver levels which they couldn't understand. I'm taking bile salts now and drinking milk thistle. Im pregnant again and trying to avoid ICP if I can.

I had obstetric cholestasis of pregnancy with my third child,itchy skin(no rash)and severe morning sickness.Doctors didn't know what was wrong with me,until taken into hospital at 35 weeks,after many tests...my reading was at 400 and delivery was induced at 36weeks, thankfully my baby had no difficulty and was perfectly healthy. The itching and sickness stopped immediately after I gave birth. I'm in Scotland, UK.The doctor's had no clue what was wrong with me and OC was unheard of.I was extremely fortunate to have a good outcome..

Is ICP linked to intellectual disability? I had undiagnosed ICP and carried my daughter full term + 10 days overdue. She is now 13 years and has a mild intellectual disability which I believe is a result of untreated ICP 😔

Thank you. I'm at 38 weeks and was asked to go to the emergency room because I started getting itching all over my body with no rash. It's not confirmed yet if it's colistasis but was still prescribed ursidiol . You mentioned that it's more for moms benefit, and doesn't do anything for baby... If the symptoms are tolerable enough, should I avoid taking this medication? At least until a diagnosis is confirmed?my Ihaven't started using it because colistasis is not confirmed and the information leaflet wasn't in depth, also I'm a bit scared to put anything else in my body because this itch started the night I got the flu shot

Hi, how did it go? I had a breakdown at 21 weeks and got the medicine he is talking about, and on blood checks every 10 days or so. Now I am 30 weeks and the liver levels are normal, not the bile acids, and my doctor wants to reduce the blood check ups to every 4 weeks and that it making me freak out.... :/

I get this with every pregnancy earlier each time. The itch starts on my feet then spreads all over. Even my eyelids. I'm 8 weeks now and its already started. I can't even see my doctor till 10 weeks. It changes the way you live especially if its untreated. I got no meds my first pregnancy. Horrible torture. I waited 12 yrs to get pregnant again cause I thought I was allergic to pregnancy. Birth control causes the same reaction.

I had cholestasis with my 3rd pregnancy my son had to be born at 35 weeks he didn't need to stay in the ICU for long, he had no problems after birth. Except an acute murmur. My first 2 pregnancies I didn't have any problems. I'm 28 weeks and 4 days now on my 4th pregnancy and my bile acids was elevated. Now I'm worried of my baby being born even before 34 weeks.
