Guest guest Posted May 6, 2000 Report Share Posted May 6, 2000 Alley So glad to hear your news - My husband is 41 and that is what the doctor told him with his age and the mild fibrosis he had at time of liver biopsy he had a chance to beat it so go for it and hope you don't have the terrible sides that he has but being in remission as he was before all of our other troubles made the sides worth it. We will find out in a few weeks just how much damage was done while he was off his medication and sitting in jail and then we have the hearing this Monday - so wish us luck on that and that there wasn't much damage while he was off the medication for that time period. Your age has alot to do with it so glad your not waiting to go for the treatment. Hang in there and good luck. Winne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
