Saying ‘no’ to alcohol due to my PBC
Living in a society in which alcohol is so prevalent is a struggle when you have PBC, but for me, it isn’t worth the risk.

Angela Schaff, a single mother of 3 boys, has been a stay-at-home mom since 2005, when she started to have medical issues. Those issues culminated when she was diagnosed with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) in 2014. The diagnosis was confirmed directly after the complicated birth of Angela's youngest son. "I don’t believe it’s a coincidence that PBC symptoms started to show for me during one of the hardest times of my life," she said. Angela is eager to share her experiences managing PBC alongside the numerous other challenges in her life.
