Good News about Cirrhosis?

With all this Covid 19 madness, I’ve kind of forgotten about my husbands cirrhosis. Has anyone heard any good news for cirrhosis lately? Anything on the horizon? I’m wondering about Vitamin E and if that helps. I also read that Gastric weight loss surgery has done good things for NASH related cirrhosis...even reversing it in some cases?

Where did you read that? I thought you couldn't have gastric bypass surgery for weight loss if you had cirrhosis?! What procedure are you referring to? The removable gastric balloon seems to be less invasive but still not without risk. I would love to see what you have found, thank you.

Not what you're looking for?
