Liver disease, cirrhosis: Why do test results come back negative?

Can you have liver disease/cirrhosis even though blood work and images didn’t show. Is this possible?

Hi,
Wow to me it does not seem possible but of course I am not a Dr. 2yrs. LTP.
I had cirrhosis, liver blood work out of range. Portal hypotension. I never felt really bad in the beginning but by the time I got to the specialist I was very sick.
Please keep on top and ask your Dr how is this possible. Have them check your MELD score.
Good luck I hope u r in the very early stages and they can catch it early b/f u get really sick.💚💚

Hi @kellywally 😊
It's very nice to meet you! I am a kidney transplant patient, but I am sure a liver transplant patient will jump into this discussion shortly!
I am curious, is this what happened to you? No signs of liver trouble on imaging and blood work, but you just received a diagnosis of liver disease? Did symptoms instigate a visit to your doctor or how did this all start?
