Fib-4 score of 0.64

[PaPPaG]

Hello all. I hope everyone is doing well.

Just a quick question, I've just received a message from my GP surgery as they do everything online now. My GP has said that since my diagnosis of NASH having lost over 60lbs and changing my lifestyle to a completely new diet (thanks Wayne) and getting regular exercise my AST from mynlatest blood test has come back normal and I am showing a Fib-4 score of 0.64. I'm trying to find something on google to break it down for me if this is good or if I'm still in dark waters. I doubt I will ever return to my ways of smoking, sugar, processed meats and saturated fats but if there is anyone who can let me know if this is a way in the right direction for me I would be much appreciated. I just cant seem to understand the medical lingo on google when I search for how to understand a fib-4 score of 0.64.

Thanks in advance.

Sure, I wish I had that number. Here is an explanation that might be useful, but to summarize a value of less than 1.3 has a high probability of not having fibrosis so 0.64 is excellent. Now, to be clear it is a probability calculation so you can't take it as a get out of jail free card and you need to stay with your program but it is a very good score.

Thanks Wayne. Always appreciate your input. To think 6 months ago I was in a very different situation. It's been a long road. So many other problems seem to arise with all the lifestyle changes but I will continue with the road I'm on as I know it is the right way to go for longevity and making sure I'm around to get my daughter down the aisle one day. ;). Thanks so much and wish you all the best.
