Liver cirrhosis at the age of 16
My cousin (16 years old) recently got diagnosed with liver cirrhosis. She had very heavy stomach pain, she had a lot of fluid in her stomach and then the doctors diagnosed liver cirrhosis. They don't know yet what caused it and are gonna test her to Wilson's disease. My question is how can she live with it? And if she gets liver transplant it won't "cure" the cirrhosis right?
