Thank you for the advice Stef, i had a bad feeling about the doc anyway...will look for another one. I was already getting very depressed about the state of my liver until i found this thread saying otherwise..

change doctor immediately and if you have a chance tell him he s ignorant and should be ashamed

you have a perfect liver

I just got my Fibroscan test done today, same result 6.3 kpa and my doc said it's a bad result and that i have stage 2 fibrosis? The tec that did the test said its a perfect liver,. but the doc said its not?

[stef2011]

you didn t have fibroscan but just fibroscore tests which are not reliable

It is not 100% thats why he said might as he doesn't want you to blame him if that doesn't happen. You are bellow 30, so for you, I would estimate (I am not expert in fibrosis regression) that there is 99% of chance that your liver will regress fibrosis if you get on nucs. It will take some time (maybe few years) for that to happen, it is a very slow process.

May I ask from you made that statement
Aduiski? I am interested in an official study/report. Doctor says, that entecavir "might" regress fibrosis. Regards
