I think your doc will tell you not to worry especially if LFTs are normal but he/she may have other insights that I know nothing about

Hi and welcome to the forum,

No one is medically trained to be able to diagnose you with cirrhosis of the liver.

We would suggest that you consider discussing your symptoms with your own doctors so they can assess and guide you.

See a Specialist Doctor and get tested by your description it may be a hundred possible things going on. A Liver Enzyme test is needed.

Hey. I’ve had similar issues recently. Hands blotchy when down but clear when they’re elevated. I have never heard any specification on if it’s all the time or only when down. I will tell you after having high LFTs, I became extremely healthy and mine have been in the normal range, but yet I still have this with my palms. It comes and goes but I would urge you to have your LFT done and then if your high you will get a US. Another stroke of luck was my US was normal and healthy. Take care of yourself, take it seriously and stay off the booze until your results come back. Tho I may have a drink from time to time I thoroughly take care of myself and take it seriously and constantly get check ups to ensure this was a blip. You may be fine, you may not, but you will drive yourself mad on this site if you don’t talk to your GP immediately. But if you find out the clarification on this issue you make sure to let me know! 😅
