Steve’s Story

My biggest regret is not taking the wake up call I had when I first saw my GP 8/9 years ago seriously enough, I’m not saying the damage might not have already been done, but a change of lifestyle could have made a big difference and I at least would not have had to go through the near fatal experience I had.

My story is probably like a number of others, I never really had any obvious symptoms but I was actually very ill. It was only after I was diagnosed that I could look back and think maybe this or that was due to the liver disease.
