HELP from a HEPATOLOGIST please!?
Cirrhosis of the liver is when the liver cells die off and form scar tissue inside the liver. The scar tissue can start to reconstruct the liver inside. Therefore, the blood may not flow well through the liver. The liver does try to regenerate new cells, but they bunch up against this scar tissue and this is what gives the liver a lumpy and nodular appearance. They also see a mass in the middle of the lower part of the right lobe of the liver, It is about 2.1 x 2.0 inches in size. They are not sure and cannot determine is this is cancer (carcinoma). They usually use contrast medium, that they give you during the test, to help them see more clearly what an object is...but they did not have it done on this exam. Therefore, they are not sure about this or if there are other possible lesions (that are too small to see). Please note: [Sometimes growths can be a cyst (fluid filled;cortical meaning they have other contents inside of them; rarely cancerous), benign growth, hemangioma ( which is a group of blood vessels) Here is a link that shows the different masses: http://www.meddean.luc.edu/lumen/MedEd/R... Here is a link on Cirrhosis: Medicine Net: http://www.medicinenet.com/cirrhosis/art... This is just for information. You are not being answered by a professional. Also, only the doctor can be positive of your tests result meaning....because one test is not enough to make a diagnosis. Your entire medical records and other tests results have to be looked at, to be sure of what is stated in this one test. I hope this has been of some help to you. Best wishes

I have NAFLD (Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease). What are my chances of getting Cirrhosis?
You should be seeing either a gastroenterlogist or hepatologist now. Fatty liver disease can be caused by many different things: alcohol consumption, certain medications like steriods, weight gain, hereditary conditions, diabetes, insulin resistance, high cholesterol/triglyceride levels and more. The cause needs to be determined. There are different stages of this disease.... Simple fatty liver doesn't usually cause a problem and can be easily reversed by stopping the cause. Alot of people are very thin and can still have this problem. The fat pushes on the liver cells and can even push the nucleus of the liver cell out of place. That is why it has to be treated immediately ....so the fat will disappear and not harm the cells. The liver is surrounded by a membrane capsule and the fat only adds to the pressure inside the liver. If the cells of the liver become damaged, it signals the immune system of the body to respond to this. The immune system then causes inflammation to develop inside the liver, also. This will cause the liver to enlarge in size. It then goes from simple fatty liver to steatohepatitis. Steato means fat, hepat means liver and itis means inflammation. This becomes more serious...the inflammation adds to more pressure inside the liver and the cells can more easily start to die off. When the cells die off, it becomes a progressive disease known as Cirrhosis of the liver. What happens now, it the cells die off and form scar tissue inside the liver that blocks the flow of blood through the liver on its way back to the heart and may also block the flow of blood to the other liver cells and they will continually die off. If the patient follows the doctor instructions and is treated for any inflammation that may have developed...then it may never go to the point of becoming Cirrhosis of the liver. Here are some links to help you learn more about this, that you can click on: http://www.medicinenet.com/fatty_liver/a... http://www.aafp.org/afp/20060601/1961.ht... http://yourtotalhealth.ivillage.com/fatt... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatty_liver I hope this information has been of some help to you.
I have stage 2 of Liver Fibrosis..?
There are many causes of liver problems: (1)alcohol consumption, (2)medication toxifications, (3)chemical exposure,(4) hereditary conditions where the body hold onto too much iron or copper, (5)auto immune disease like biliary cirrhosis or sclerosing cholangitis,(6) fatty liver disease like simple fatty liver, NASH,or alcoholic steatohepatitis (7) Biliary obstruction or malformation (8) cardiac disease (9) parasitic infections (10) viral infections like Hepatitis A,B,C,etc ....and there are others. You should be with either a gastroenterologist or a hepatologist. You need to find out the cause of the fibrosis occurring before you will be treated for it properly. Fibrosis can lead to cirrhosis of the liver and scar tissue forming inside the liver that is then a progressive disease. The itching can come from having this liver problem. I would seek more professional care and be sure you are treated for any inflammation that has developed in your liver. This is very serious
