Possibly: What did your fibroscan show? Please stop all advil and ibuprofen which are hard on the liver like alcohol and follow up with your physician for a hepatologist referral(GI specialist) if you qualify for Hep C treatment. Of course, no sharing needles or razors and condom use to prevent spread is also important.

Possibly: Liver enzymes are evaluated with a panel called a CMP, and individual function tests can be added on A general CBC will not specifically give information about liver function. You can be cautiously optimistic about Hepatitis C remission with normal enzymes, but liver enzymes can also appear normal before they become low as a result of progressive liver failure.
