Block Vein

I have been suffering with Cirrhosis for 4 years

All the usual issues including liver transplant list, I still suffer from itching and disrupted sleeping.

My last visit to the QE2 I was told my liver vein is blocked but minor veins are enabling a blood flow and my test results are good, but I am worried as it was suggested that a liver transplant may be necessary but with such good result its not needed

Has any one else had any experience of this problem?
