Hi thanks for contacting HCM...
Noted you are hepatitis c positive since many years....
Your liver might be enlarged if in active phase....
To determine severity of liver involvement liver biopsy could be useful...
Meanwhile take low fat diet...
Fruits and green leafy veg more....
Foods like carrot , papaiya , lemon juice , Indian gooseberry , dandelion , beets etc taken more....that is good for liver...
Junk foods and alcohol kept limited..
Take care.
