Is it possible for a liver biopsy to show stage 4 of 4 cirrhosis (non-alcoholic) in October of 2014 and have normal liver enzymes show up on blood work done this month?
Also, at what point do you need to see a hepatologist if a biopsy has revealed stage 4 of 4 cirrhosis?
It appears that the webinar is on CST. If that is the case, I will be unable to attend. Will the webinar be recorded so that we can listen to it later?
