Cirrhosis Of The Liver

Updated

My husband was recently diagnosed with Cirrhosis of the liver. He had been told for years a fatty liver is of no concern. And now this. He has more fatigue. Takes naps. He is 65 years old. Never a drinker or smoker. Is it normal to be so tired after the little thing? Can you tell how long a person lives with this disease? I need answers quick.

I'm very sorry to hear about your husband's diagnosis. Who said that a fatty liver was of no concern?

I've been diagnosed with it, and have been made fully aware of the possibility of it turning into Cirrhosis in the future, and am monitored regularly to keep tabs on it.

Is he on any medications? At this point, it is hard to say what may be causing his fatigue, it could be due to compromised liver function, medications he's on, or entirely unrelated. Life expectancy can vary, depending on how advanced the disease is, so there is no way for anyone online to give you an idea on that. What has his doctor told you?

John, has this medication been prescribed for you?
