[|AI|]  Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor.I am sorry about this serious diagnosis, but I see you are a fighter and this is a good sign. In these cases blood sugar isn't something that determinate your life expectancy. Also, it can be pretty easily managed by certain medicines. Only important findings are liver function tests and liver morphology. So you will be fine till your liver works good enough, and it means that there should be more than 20% of normal liver tissue. It is obvious that all you need is palliative care and sometimes GP can be more helpful than any insurance or institution. You just need to use adequate painkillers, prevent ascites accumulation and prevent weight loss. Everything else isn't in your hands.
