What Are The Symptoms Of Cirrhosis?

My husband shows blood work on his liver to be normal, this was 3 months after he stopped drinking. He was told over 2 years ago by his liver doctor that his liver could not take another hit when one of the liver tests spiked at 2365! Is it possible he still has liver damage? He shows almost all symptomes of Cirrhosis.

Hi welcome to health care magic...

Here you have mentioned 2300 above raised level, probably you are talking about liver enzymes report like sgpt....
So it is alcohol induce hepatitis....

If repeated hepatitis attack there and chronic liver infection than irreversible liver damage can occur called as cirrhosis.....

For that USG done with serum albumin estimation to detect it...

Symptoms are ascites, variceal bleed, splenomegaly etc......

So consult physician and get proper examined and confirm if cirrhosis present than further treatment protocol can be guided.......

Take care

Hope this will help
