   hey there willie......... i am sorry that they found cirrhosis :-( I have
   that too! Did they give you a grade and stage? are you beginning
   cirrhosis? Cirrhosis would be stage 4 and then there are grades 1-4 within
   that with grade 4 stage 4 being the worst or end stage cirrhosis. There are
   lots of things you can do for yourself.......... especially in the way of
   diet and herbs........do you take milk thistle and lecithin? almost all the
   docs i have seen over the years say that those two are the most important.
   Anyway, I am unsure if treatment would exacerbate it or not. I just know
   that mine DID get worse with just 17 weeks of treatment. I think it is
   something you should talk over with your doc and then make a decision. Good
   luck with it (((Willie))) and if there is anything I can do for you please
   don't hesitate to ask :-) I have been cirrhotic for several years and I
   am still hanging in and hanging on so don't let it get you too down ;-)
   Are they going to send you for a transplant eval? Take care and I will
   ttyl.
   Peace and Love,
   Pam

   I looked at my charge for my Biopsy and they coded it as cirrhosis. I am a
   bit panicked since my doctors appointment isnt until Monday. I work at the
   hospital where my work is being done and I have access to all the records, I
   am tempted to pull the actual report. I am not feeling sick does this mean I
   am going to be sick soon. This is so hard.
   Thanks for listening
