No doctors are on this forum....we are mostly patients with hepatitis C.

They have doctors answering questions at this link. Maybe they can be more helpful. Hopefully, the patient is seeing a liver specialist (hepatologist) and not be treated by anyone less experienced.

Hope things work out. Here's the link to the doctor site:
