Decompensated liver ...what is my life span ive already had 6 varacies i suffer from a lot of water infections my legs have now started to swell ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Life expectancy: It is impossible to predict how long you are going to survive with this significant condition. Many people with varices secondary to portal hypertension from cirrhosis do not do very well and may not make it for another year, and yet some do. You can discuss this with your treating physician who will know more about your status. Good luck and best wishes.
