Liver disease, the common killer no one knows about, what do we do to fix that?

We are never going to get the support we need if no one knows about these diseases. We all know about regular blood pressure, diabetes, mammographies, and colonoscopies for example, but there is not regular liver health test. No wonder we end up at stage 4 with no warning. Any thoughts on how we change that?

This is our idea. We should screen at-risk people before they get to stage 4

More education , i had no idea of the real danger i was doing, this was alcohol related..now i have f4 end stage fibrosis and fatty liver its too late to reverse.. not enough info given out by hospitals or drs.. roadshows , more publicity..

In fact i agree anyone who is even f0-f2.should be followed up yearly. I would personally love to go around a detox ward / or diabetic ward obesity etc.. and willingly share my story.. Which is a long one 🙄
