Hi there,
Thanks for using HCM.
Sorry to know that your dad is having cirrhosis of liver.
The information you have provided is very less to tell the outcome.
We need to calculate the CTP score to know the outcome.
To calculate this score we need to know about the bilrubin,albumin and PT/INR numbers and about ascites and encephalopathy.

Regards.
