I had an ultrasound that showed I was F3 which requires a biopsy to see if there was cirrhosis so that I would be eligible for a trial. My blood work wasn’t bad maybe elevated a couple points. I just felt the ultrasound was wrong so I scheduled a fibroScan but then became afraid of what it might say. The nurse practitioner assured me the ultrasound was correct but would do the fibroScan so that I would agree to the biopsy. Well the day before my fibroScan I was going to back out because I thought I just needed more time to eat right exercise more. Thanks to Wayne that gave me the courage to face my fears good or bad I needed to go. I will always appreciate his advice and just wanted to personally thank him for the many emails to get me through this nightmare.
