Does The Bile Duct Blockage Cause Harmful Effects On The Liver?

My mother had a good base line when she went into the hospital. After a few weeks and a few transfusions her liver numbers went through the roof. Tested for liver cancer - negative. Some bile duct blockage, but they said that wouldn't do it because of the ducts. Any ideas. Thank you

Welcome at HCM.
I have gone through your query and being your physician I completely understand your health concerns ...
What exactly the problem? Any sclerosing cholangitis or biliary cirrhosis?
On basis of your history it is difficult to comment. You should meet Hepatoligist so that you can be examined and investigated properly... In my opinion you should have MRCP of your liver and ducts so that exact problem can be sort out... After then definitive management can be initiated.
Stay calm and meet your Hepatoligist and discuss about MRCP and ERCP....
Hope your query is addressed properly
