Fibroscan

[kader68]

I am 55 years. I have undergone liver scan and other tests on October 4, 2022. My doctor told the liver condition already progressed to early cirrhosis.

Is there anyone please advise me how can I reverse the condition. Has the condition already gone beyond the control?

What is deemed to be the cause of your liver condition? If you can identify that and tackle the underlying cause then there may be an opportunity to reverse the level of fibrosis.

Hi there

Thank you so much for your precious reply.

Since 2007 I have been suffering type 2 diabetes. My doctor diagnosed NASH in 2020. I never drunk and overweight. I took Ursodeoxycholic acid (Ursodil 300mg) for couple of months. Last week he told not to take this medicine because it has no effect as the fibrosis is now advance stage.

Please advise me.

There is also the excellent downloadable leaflet on how to treat NAFLD with healthy diet & exercise which may help you. britishlivertrust.org.uk/do...

Hi Kader, I had pretty much exactly the same thing happen to me at about the same age as you. First I was diagnosed with cirrhosis (big surprise!), then they had to figure out why I had it...it was determined that I had primary biliary cholangitis. It has been 10 years and my bloodwork is normal and I feel fine. My liver is compensating. It doesn't sound like they have figured out why exactly you have cirrhosis though. And I don't understand why a doctor would tell you to stop taking Ursodiol. That sounds strange to me. Are you sure you understood correctly?
