Thanks for the input, everybody. The doctor did not mention to my friend that he should get on the transplant list which seems a rather ominous omission to me. I know those lists can be a couple of years long - maybe more.
My friend has been getting pretty sick, often can't hold down food, is in constant pain from the area of his liver, etc. The Doc gave him a bunch of pain pills which seem to help a little. I've been reluctant to do the research on the Net for fear of what I will find out. I'm sort of in denial right now that there is a very high probability I am going to have to watch my friend die.
This really, really sucks. My thanks to all who replied. It helps to get it all out - even to a group of strangers on the Net.
Mercenary, where did you get your info on the liver?
