Being told by your doctor that you have cirrhosis of the liver can be frightening, because cirrhosis is life threatening. But when it's diagnosed early, cirrhosis life expectancy and prospects for a normal life are good.
How long you live with cirrhosis depends on how much damage your liver has sustained. Doctors use "stages" to a measure of how much damage has been done to the liver as scar tissue has replaced healthy tissue.
In stage 1, cirrhosis is so mild it’s often difficult to detect and diagnose. Patients in stage 1 might notice that they get tired easily and often, but no other symptoms are obvious. Patients in stage 1 cirrhosis have a 99% 1-year survival rate.
In stage 2, scar tissue has grown to the point where more symptoms begin to appear, like increased blood pressure. The one-year survival rate for patients in stage 2 is 98%.
During stage 3, symptoms become obvious, including weight loss, yellowing skin, fatigue, and cognitive issues. At this stage, fluid accumulates in the abdominal cavity and significant, irreversible tissue damage has occurred. The 1-year survival rate for anyone in stage 3 is 80%. Patients in stage 3 are candidates for a liver transplant. 80% of patients who have undergone a successful transplant survive more than 5 years past their operation.
Patients who have reached stage 4 have experienced so much irreversible liver tissue damage that life is endangered. Statistically, only 43% of patients in stage 4 survive past 1 year.
It's important to remember that each patient is different, and life expectancy varies depending on age, weight, and general health. Estimates, even by the best doctors, are -- at best -- educated guesses.
