I was just diagnosed with cirrhosis 6 weeks ago. My fibroscan score was 14.1

The endoscopy , blood tests and ultrasound did not show bad results. I started getting these aches in my liver area after I had the fibroscan. Is this normal. Im afraid it started something.

If you have just been told and your results were not bad all your need to do is a few life style changes as to what has caused it once you stop the cause the liver will repair quickly over a months good luck Lon

Sometimes a fiboscan can give higher results due to inflammation an user error, how are your platelets, this is a very good indicator of advanced liver disease, 85 % of ppl with advanced liver disease have low or low normal platelet count. good luck!
