Went for 6 monthly US today and they also fitted me in for a fibroscan. Well...the US showed a regular shaped, smooth liver with no nodules and only mild fatty liver. Fibroscan was still high at 40, but much better than 10 months ago when it was 74. My liver is recovering from the years of alcohol I have fed it. I asked if my diagnosis was, indeed, cirrhosis, seeing as there was signs of big improvement. Was told "still not sure", but everything is heading in the right direction and to just carry on doing what I've been doing, because it's working. They are still going to treat me as if I have cirrhosis, but things are looking a lot better for me going forward than they were 10 months ago. There is hope for me yet. This has been a very good day for me and my family. Best wishes to you all. X
