A member asked:
Is it possible i have cirrhosis with a normal ultrasound, normal complete blood count, and normal comprehensive metabolic panel?

Yes: Early, compensated cirrhosis may be accompanied by normal test results. A biopsy is the gold standard for diagnosis, though CT/MRI may be helpful.

Cirrhosis: No, if your labs are normal with normal US then likely not. However even if you don't have cirrhosis now, if you're drinking enough to be concerned about it Id stop any alcohol use and no tylenol (acetaminophen).
