    You asked him about life expectancy for stage 4 & he never answered! Kept going back to early stage. I wanted to know the stage 4/decompensated stage answer!

    The health system sucks, especially for people on Medicare. If you think the doctor is speaking too fast, go to settings, and where it says playback speed, put it on 0.75.

      No matter what time frame a doctor gives he is either 100% right or 100% wrong. So there's no point in asking

    I have severe pain without cirrhosis! I have no respect for doctors who disregard people that are outliers. Cookie cutter medicine shows lack of creativity and expertise on harder, more complicated diagnosis and patients that have different symptoms than the major population. Disregarding a patients symptoms shows lack of empathy!

    Hi my name is Sheila my doctor schedules me every 6 months for ultrasound for my liver a few years ago I was surprised when I was told I was going to be checked for Hep C long story short. I had my ultrasound on Friday and the ultrasound was good. But my doctor sent me a text saying I had cirrhosis but could be cancerous. She never said what I should do or look out for. I’m waiting to hear from her.the massage was void to me . Good news but cirrhosis Da…. Could I get some clearly.confused.
