Hi
How accurate are liver function tests?
Can you tell if you have cirrhosis by them?
If a full blood count and liver function test come back OK, can liver disease be ruled out?
Thanks x

Liver function test does tell whether there is damage to the liver.
They can also tell by elevated protein in the blood.
I do have to add tho that just because a blood test might show elevated LFT and/or protein doesn't mean cirrhosis! I have hypothyroidism and if I don't take my meds, my LFT goes thru the roof!!

Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character.
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.
