A member asked:

Hepc, cirohis, ct scan -liver shows eviden of nodular surface, hypertrophied caudate & left lobe.normal calibre abdominal aorta. how bad is it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

You: Have evidence of cirrhosis. A gastroenterologist can give you guidance regarding how well your liver is functioning, ways to slow further liver damage, and surveillance to detect any developing liver tumors (such as hepatoma). If you don't drink and take of yourself there is every likelihood of many more years of life.
