I was diagnosed in Oct with F4 cirrhosis. I had crazy liver enzymes.
I am 73. I am being told just eat right.. chicken,,turkey & fish. I was given a pamphlet.No meds, No studies just monitor. I am healthy otherwise’& no symptoms. I exercise a lot & take good care of myself. They say no transplant. I don’t get it.Its not fair if all other aspects of my health is good

@sjh1240, Welcome to Connect.
I have a transplant. It is a complex procedure that not everyone needs or qualifies for. I don't know what your diagnosis is, but surely your doctors have discussed it with you, and explained why they say "no" to transplant. How are you being monitored? And what are they expecting to learn by monitoring you?
