Welcome to PSC Support, the UK charity dedicated to helping anyone affected by Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis.
PSC is an uncommon chronic liver disease where the bile ducts inside and outside
the liver progressively narrow due to inflammation and scarring. Bile ducts are
tubes which carry bile (a greenish yellow liquid made by the liver) into the upper
part of the bowel, in order to break up the fat from the food that we eat. The narrowing
causes bile to accumulate in the liver, and can result in liver damage. There is
no currently known cure or proven treatment but there are medications that help
relieve some symptoms.
PSC Support operates support lines, provides information and newsletters, online community forums and regular meetings. PSC Support also makes financial contributions to support PSC research initiatives. We’re run 100% by volunteers, totally funded from charitable donations and are here to help anyone affected by PSC.
