Re: Cirossis damage caused by alcohol or hep-c?

Stage 4 fibrosis is the first stage of cirrhosis. There are stages of cirrhosis, too, so don't think this is end stage liver disease. Not by a long shot!

It is still a manageable disease and one in which, if you can tolerate it, six months of Pegasys and ribavirin is a very good idea.

Staying off the cigs is now a necessity and you have no time to waste. You cannot afford to risk further damage by smoking or postponing treatment any longer than it takes to get yourself ready.

It is vital that you make really healthy choices.

Stick around. We'll be here for you.
