9. Prognosis
With treatment, most people with cholangitis make a full recovery. The chances for this improve when cholangitis is caught early and treatment takes place right away. Therefore, you should have regular checkups and routine lab work to gauge the health of your liver and bile duct system. This is important because some patients with cholangitis do not have symptoms.
Otherwise, you should contact your doctor right away if you have changes in digestion or yellowing of the skin and eyes. Severe abdominal pain or fever should also receive a doctor’s attention.
