NASH/AIH combo

Posted By shelby on May 25, 1999 at 16:12:54
I have a very general question.  Can you have a combination of Autoimmune Hepatitis and NASH?  If so, can you tell by the biopsy.  My biopsy said cirrhosis with moderate active inflammation and mild fatty changes.  I also have a positive ANA.
Can NASH alone cause cirrhosis?  All other hepatitis tests were negative like A,B,C etc.  The ANA test by the way is the only autoimmune test that was off according to the doctors. ANA 1:320.
I don't drink or smoke.
Thanks for any information in advance.

Do you consider NASH a serious disorder?
