Is it ok to take both with liver disease?

I belong to a group of folks with PSC - rare liver disease. There are quite a few members of that group who take both. I take SAM-E but not Milk Thistle.

I do not have any experience with milk thistle, but before my transplant when my liver was being ruined by only way of nutrition, TPN, my doctor had me taking SAM-e to try to help my situation. I believe he had told me had some of his other liver patients who had different problems take it.
