Cirrhosis of the liver is late stage liver disease, in which healthy liver tissue has been gradually replaced with scar tissue. This is a result of long-term, chronic hepatitis. Hepatitis is inflammation in your liver, which has many causes. When inflammation is ongoing, your liver attempts to repair itself by scarring. But too much scar tissue prevents your liver from working properly. The end stage is chronic liver failure. Are there stages of cirrhosis?
Treatment also may be recommended for associated conditions (high blood pressure, diabetes and cholesterol) or complications.
No one knows the future, but life brings the constant opportunity to discover your true potential as a person, artist, parent, athlete, or activist. The chance to leave your mark You'll only be considered for a liver transplant if you have developed complications of cirrhosis despite having stopped drinking. In general, the more you drink, the greater your chance of developing alcohol related hepatitis or cirrhosis. A poor diet may make the problem worse. As liver failure advances, symptoms become more severe. In later stages, symptoms of liver failure may include:
Once you start to get symptoms of liver disease, your liver is already damaged and scarred. This is known as cirrhosis. You may also receive a blood transfusion if you are bleeding excessively, or a breathing tube to help you breathe. If your doctor thinks you have any form of liver disease they will try to find out what is causing it and how damaged your liver is. This will include special blood tests and scans which are usually carried out at a hospital. The early stages of alcohol-related liver disease usually do not cause any symptoms. It’s often diagnosed during tests for other conditions. Many people aren’t diagnosed until their disease has become serious.All liver transplant units require people with ARLD to not drink alcohol while awaiting the transplant, and for the rest of their life. Complications If you have NAFLD, your liver function test results may be abnormal. But a normal result doesn’t rule out liver problems. That’s why your doctor may recommend other tests such as an ultrasound scan to help diagnose NAFLD (see below). Exercise more. This will help you to lose any excess weight you may have. It may also help to reduce damage to your liver even if you don’t manage to lose any weight. ARLD is common in the UK. The number of people with the condition has been increasing over the last few decades as a result of increasing levels of alcohol misuse.
cirrhosis – the most severe stage, occurring after years of inflammation, where the liver shrinks and becomes scarred and lumpy; this damage is permanent and can lead to liver failure (where your liver stops working properly) and liver cancer Things really will improve, though you’ll probably have to work at it. Your future may look a little different from what you envisioned, since not all damage can be repaired.Liver failure can take years to develop. The symptoms of liver failure often look like symptoms of other medical conditions, which can make it hard to diagnose in its early stages. Symptoms get worse as your failing liver continues to get weaker. Anyone with liver disease can have a transplant assessment if they meet certain conditions. This will be carried out at a liver transplant unit, and the process usually takes about a week. You may need to stay in hospital during this time, or you may be able to go home at the end of each day. How inspiring is it that you’ve come from an unbroken line of humans who survived long enough to bring about your existence?
