What is the life expectancy of a person with end stage liver disease (cirrhosis)?

from experience in my own family it only took about 8 weeks give or take a few days.

I really hate to hear of stuff like this. If you need to talk feel free to contact me. Ive worked with hospice and dealt with this in my own family. Report It

Usually less than 12 weeks.

I have seen Homeopathic Medicine work very well on Liver Cirrhosis,Hepatitis. I know most of the people do not believe in homeopathic treatment but I cant deny what I have seen I have seen a lot of people get well some in almost impossible conditions got cured using homeopathic medicines.Why not give it a try ! Wishing you all the best in your health. Have a Good day.

I agree with Smile Smile.
