Hi, I was diagnosed with cirrhosis last month and I’ve received my first blood test results from the hospital. They say some are raised, some are normal and some improved but give no indication of what normal should be. Does anyone know what the optimum levels should be for ALT. ALP, AST, bilirubin,

LIVER PAIN?
I'm getting weird dull aches under my ribs on the right side. I read that liver doesnt have nerves so you cant get pain from it. Is that true? Could the ache be my inflamed liver pushing against my ribs or damage like fibrosis from inside my liver. I'm sorry to bother you with it but you all seem to

Normal scans, mostly normal blood tests. Can you still have HE?
I have had abnormal LFTs for 2.5 years (that I know of - no tests before). Normal ultrasounds x4, normal HIDA, normal CT scan, normal fibroscans x2 showing F0 and approx 240 CAP. An MRCP showed sludge when I was pregnant. I went and got my gallbladder out which showed chronic cholestasis but nothing

Acceptance
Hi just wondered how people have come to terms with their diagnosis? I mentally get so distressed having appointment after appointment, new tests new bad news. I'm so disheartened with life even though I have so much to live for. I can't seem to come to terms with my life being so different to others
