Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis And How It Affects Your Liver

8. Symptoms

Symptoms of primary sclerosing cholangitis may not show up until after a diagnosis has been given due to a routine blood test or if an X-ray shows abnormalities in the liver. Early signs may include itching and fatigue, although some people may go years before developing any indication of disease. As the illness progresses, the following symptoms may occur: fever, chills, night sweats, pain in the upper right abdomen area, weight loss, an enlarged liver, yellowing eyes and skin (jaundice), and weight loss.
