Im sorry my friend, Ive had 3 liver byopsy's and I have no idea what 13 to 3 scale. eans?? Im at stage 4 But if your liver damage is limited,Im not clear on your question? Cause I do know that your liver is the only organ that has the ability to regenerate itself.

Could it be Knodell Score? My husbands liver biopsy was a score of 5 out of 18. His Dr. stated that after tx the score should go down, which is good. Going from 13 to 3 seems like great news. Have you completed tx or currently on tx?

Yes! thank-you Donna! it is the Knodell score! Yay now I can look up more stuff about it. Yeah, it was a big suprise to me to go from a 13 to a 3 with no tx, or even being all that 'good' for 6 years( 5 years with an alchoholic can influence you to drink alot too,he's outa the pic now so dont worry:). So your guess is as good as mine. I am doing the healthy stuff cosistantly now ,lots of water and vitamins, I am quitting them for a couple days tho cuz, experiencing stomach pain and little twinges near or in my liver and I have never experienced any liver pain except during or after a biopsy. So, one of the vits may be too much. So, I'll start again eliminating one at a time for a week each time.Thanks-guys! -trgrl

I will type i what my report said before tx. I was an 8. 1 for mild interface hepatits,1 for occasional necrotic hepatocytes and 3 for moderate portal inflamation and 3 forbridging fibrosis.Oh Tatman you can live with one lung because that will rejuenate like the liver to breath normal.

Now you got me thinking,thats a good thing,kinda like breathing...anyways Im wondering why my report simply said stage 1 w/minimal scarring.i will call tomorrow ans see what other infor. I can get.Thanks,vji/val
