Probably not. Once it is cirrhotic the cirrhotic part can't reverse itself. So far it is still functioning well, fortunately you can survive with only part of your liver functioning. Hopefully it will continue to function. Staying on IFN and watching it closely are all I can do. I do not need to be evaluated for further action unless or until it stops functioning and starts to fail.

My information says 'early cirrhosis' can reverse. I was given a 50/50 shot of regaining 2 stages. At last visit Doc offered his opinion that my general health (which ain't so bad but energy is lower than I'd like and my brain ain't what it once was) will show improvement over a 5 year window. There are exceptional cases where cirrhosis has completely reversed - I think Cecil cites one on his site. So there is definitely room for optimism. Maybe FLguy will update us after his upcoming consult.

BTW, do I remember correctly that you contracted the virus relatively recently?

Goofy thanks that is great news for Kalio and others who have early stage cirrhosis.

Hope you are doing well

I finally talked the doc into a CT scan, since all my blood levels didnt reveal anything out of whack he didnt think I needed a biopsy, but he did the scan to shut me up I think.. was going to tx anyway and the CT scan showed I have cirrhosis. Fortunately it is "early" and I am in the first category on the scale with a score of 5.

Can do sorry, I thought there was a Hep B forum on here. :)

Paris hang in there, 2 shots to go.  I had some really bad weeks too.  Don't know why some weeks are better or worse then others but they are.  Just think in 2 weeks you'll be done and start to feel better and you will feel better.  All you are going through is normal and I know you know that, just think some times we all need to hear it.
