When the bloodwork came back the doctor said everything was fine. I asked if they had done liver tests. The doctor said yes and my liver enzymes were fine. I was satisfied.

But I guess since I had asked about my liver, when the doctor was doing a requisition form for a pelvic scan he asked for an abdominal scan as well. The tech scanned my liver and gall bladder as well.


My liver is fine!!! No cirrhosis!!! I am so relieved. This was not an issue that I had planned to look into until I had some serious sobriety under my belt but here I am. Thank God.

I do have huge fibroids though...... Oh well.

Adopting children is a heck of a lot easier than finding a new liver. So I'm happy.
sorry about your fibroids, great news on the liver though!! i'm very happy for you.
