Lao Liu, 58 years old this year, is a hepatitis C virus infected person, at that time the aminotransferases were very high, the viral load was also very high, color ultrasound showed liver cirrhosis, splenomegaly! Up to today, I have been treated for two years, and now all indicators are normal, and the condition is very stable! Liver cirrhosis has also been controlled, and all liver functions are normal, which can be said to be exactly the same as a healthy person!
Cirrhosis is not that it is not cured or controlled, it may be that you have chosen the wrong plan, and the treatment of cirrhosis focuses on early detection and prevention of the progression of the disease!
