This is my second post. Previously I had my Fibroscan done in different country, which showing CAP226 kPa 75,0, and make me confused because measurements there are different, 5 pictures with kPa75,0 and other 5 is 39,7; 56,5; 4,7; 4,8; 4,5. Later I have done my blood checks in UK COAG, FBC, GGT, LFT and results mostly are normal, except ALT 53, and red blood cell count 4,98, I can’t see there AST result. I was diagnosed with hepatitis C in 2008, but it’s was low viral load since then I birth two healthy children but last 4 years was hard for me I lost my mom and sometimes on the weekends I had drink wine. That’s was a reason to get my Fibroscan done and results was shocked me. I cut off any alcohol in my life and trying keep balancing diet and do exercise now. My youngest child is only 5 years old and I can’t think if I have to leave them soon. I want to start my treatment hep C, but my GP not even rang me to discuss my results and on the paper with my blood test it’s saying no further action. Can you give me advice please.

Thank you for reply. Yes I am in UK I had my blood tests done on last week and will get appointment to discuss it with my GP. Hopefully I’ll get my treatment soon. I know I am late started think about it because it’s never was bothering me before I didn’t had any issues with my health and I was busy with kids and work. And now I’m shocked about my Fibroscan results. But I want to ask rearrange my Fibroscan again.
