[|AI|]  Hi Jason. Welcome to Chat Doctor . Thank you for posting your query. I can understand your query. You see, Hepatitis C is indeed a dangerous agent that has already damaged your liver, hence you have developed cirrhosis of liver. Cirrhosis is an irreversible destruction of the liver where the liver parenchymal is converted to fibrous material. It cannot be reverted to normal. But one needs some lifestyle modification to keep it in control. I would suggest you to- Avoid oily, spicy food-Stop smoking-Stop alcohol-Limit the fluid intake as advised by your doctor-Get an abdominal ultrasound and a liver function test done annually - I would start Tablet furosemide and tablet Gladstone if you develop ascites.- Visit your doctor regularly. He/she can examine you and correlate clinically. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow-up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions. Wishing you good health.
