I was diagnosed in 1997 with Crohn’s disease. The disease was never really under control until 2005 when I started taking imuran. In 2008 I had to have my gallbladder removed. In 2009 I was told I have PSC, at the same time I was told it was a slow moving disease. In feb 2012 I had my yearly ERCP and there was no progression. In may 2012 I became very ill with flu like symptoms and eventually was admitted to hospital with the same symptoms but chest pain as well. I was told I had pericarditis and was sent home, one month later I was back in the hospital with the same symptoms only this time I had an added symptom of a burning feeling in my upper right abdomen(liver). Next i was told I needed a biopsy of my lymph nodes because they were so enlarged. They were convinced I had lymphoma. Biopsy showed a negative result. In October they discovered through a cardiac MRI blood clots on my heart. At the same time an MRI showed my liver enlarged and that I had advanced to stage 3-4 of PSC. My liver function tests were all elevated. My current symptoms are jaundice, ascities, fatigue, body aches and pains. Are body aches ad pains symptoms of PSC?
