Viruses cause many types of hepatitis. Autoimmune hepatitis (aih) is one exception. This type of liver disease occurs when your immune system attacks your liver cells. Aih is a chronic condition that can result in cirrhosis (scarring) of the liver. Ultimately, it can lead to liver failure. Aih can be easily confused with other illnesses. Symptoms are very similar to those of viral hepatitis. Blood tests are used to measure the levels of specific antibodies in your blood. A liver biopsy may sometimes be necessary to diagnose aih. It can reveal the type and severity of your liver damage and inflammation. The procedure involves removing a small piece of your liver tissue with a long needle and sending it to a laboratory for testing.

Hello sir/madam. One month ago, my dad said that he is having pain in his shoulder, finger &knee joints then after few hrs, he was not able to move his hands & legs, then the very next day, we took him to the rheumatologist because our relatives said that these symptoms are of arthritis then the doc (rheumatologist & immunologist) told us to do lft test,& the result were like this- s.g.o.t - (65.0) s.g.p.t - (558.0) serum bilirubin total- (1.5) direct - (0.42) serum globulin - (4.5) then that doctor suggested these medicines - 1.hcq-300 2.urscol-30 3.tyzocort-12 after this he felt well & was able to move his hand & legs. Because of high level sgpt we took a second opinion of a doctor (gastroenterologist & hematologist) then he suggested these tests to us and so the results were- 1.lipid profile - normal 2.ceruloplasmin- 36.56 mg/dl 3.feritin- 387.63 ng/ml 4.ana- 0.3 5.anti lkm1 - negative <0.8 6.asma-positive (1+) 7.usg abdomen- normal then seeing these reports he said that it is probably - 1. Type-1 autoimmune hepatitis 2. Polyarthritis and told us to take these medicines 1.omnacortil-40 2.azoran-50 and told us to continue those medicines - hcq, ursocol,razo. But that 1st doctor said us that asma (1+) is may or may not be the aih type -1, and said to wait 10 days and told not to take omnacortil & azoran and said us to continue his prescribed medicines. After 10 we did our lft test as said the doctor, and the result was- s.g.o.t - (23.5 iu/l) s.g.p.t - (27.4 iu/l) total bilirubin - (1.4 mg/dl) direct bilirubin - (0.5 mg/dl) now my dad is well ,but I want to know that is he suffering from aih type-1?
