I was there in hospital only for 6 hours after biopsy, if you want you can stay longer, but I dont think you will be needing that long hours of stays in the hospital. If the treatment is free then you could stay longer but if you have to pay I dont recommend staying that long, just wasting money.

I dont know biopsy will help or not. But if you do biopsy tell your DR. To used USG guided Biopsy so that they can pull out from the right place. Its also reduces the risk of bleeding as we dont know if we have nodular or not. I did biopsy 10 days go with USG guided.

I dont think that the augmentation is due to weight,because i am on diet and i lost some killos in the past few monthes
It is due to hbv and i have now alat at 150 uiml
My Doc put me on monitoring from now to 19 jully than a check with her on 29 jully,and sure i will be under treatment
Because she told me in my last check
if increase of fibroscan result sure treatment

Hello,

Do not worry. It is very changeable. Your liver may get fat, which causes higher kPa or your immune system may active against virus and you ALT get flare,  which also causes higher kPa.

Eath healthy, live healthy. Do exercises. Do not  be fatty.

You will see that your fibroscan result will be lover than 6 kPa.
