Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concern.
Your bother's condition is not that bad. Is it?
He is having vry good medication available.
Therefore I think he is in good nmedical hands.
Treatment methods are supposed to be chalked out by your Gastroenterologist.
His diet also is what it is required to be.
Indin noni is said to improve endocrine system and regulates hormonal secrretion.
But there are not much evidences available that it had cured cirrhosis.
Wish your brother speedy recovery
