| Re: liver health test? i dissagree with a lot of what you say. the only time i've 'badmouthed' you is the honesty thread, and even then i never told you to die.

You seem quite pleasant, mostly, if a little dull. |

You can get an ultrasound scan of your liver, but only people with suspected severe damage will get this done. You can't just walk in off the street and demand an US scan of your liver, and even if you do the appearance of the liver is less important than a measure of the actual function. |
ah yes, LFT's. I remember that less than happy episode where I got glandular fever that was misdiagnosed and ended up with LFT's through the roof jaundice and liver inflamation.
Fun times :/ |
