Guest guest Posted June 20, 2001 Report Share Posted June 20, 2001 Whew, I thought you meant life expectancy. Thanks Barby & Aubrey for clearing that up. Aubrey, you said: "Cirrhosis is a pathological diagnosis. It can only be made via a biopsy ." Ken's doctor made the dx of cirrhosis after seeing the irregular surface of the liver on a MRI. Was he wrong? Also I said they did a biopsy via the ERCP. I looked it up and of course I was wrong they did it TRANS JUGULAR which sounds scarier to me, which is probably why he was sent to Baylor instead of doing it at our local hospital.
