HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is cirrhosis of liver and cause is Hepatitis C then with the newer medicines infection comes under control and prognosis would be excellent, if the inflammatory process ceased then with the time there would no complication seen, and chances of regeneration could be possible, hope this information helps, take care.
