A member asked:

What are the chances of survival with cirrhosis of the liver and cellulitis?

Dr. Alvin Lin answered

Many variables: Two variables include stage of cirrhosis as well as degree of cellulitis. Severe cellulitis w/sepsis in end stage liver disease is less likely to survive than mild cellulitis in earliest stage of cirrhosis.

A member asked:

I've had normal AST 14 ALT 11 every year for 10 years. Would odds of cirrhosis be low with those numbers alone? If by chance there was fatty liver and no alcohol for 9 months, would liver fully recover and moderate drinking would be ok?
