Good to hear from you, Bill! And nice reduction in your fibroscan post-treatment, from 10 to 5.3.

cheers,
kim :)

Hi Kim,
          That Fibroscan was last July I believe.The AST and ALT were absolutely normal so there's no reason for me to think my liver isn't doing even better now.What a blessing.My doctor shocked me by testing for liver cancer,I never even gave that a thought,and she said everything spot on.

Bill, it's great to touch base again and see your FibroScan score halved. I'm sure you're right that there's no reason to think your liver isn't doing even better now. My hep doc thinks there's a good chance my kPa score will be below 9 next time. If he's not worried about my getting HCC (he says no more ultrasounds if I get below 9 kPa), there's no reason for you to worry.

You checked back in just in time to write a fine post to Ray.

Best,

Gnatty

Hi Gnatty,
              Glad to everyone is doing fine and more dragons are biting the dust.When I did that last Fibroscan they were looking for under 7.If I could do it,I'm sure you'll make the cut. :)

Hi Bill,  I've been out of the country a lot over the past few months but I'm back now. Glad to hear you are going well. I had a check up in December and all seemed well there too.
