My dad had it and refused any surgery. If the transplant is an option in the future def have it. Of course stop the drinking. Dad also drank a lot of beer. The cirrosis was diagnosed 10 or 15 years after he quit drinking. I’m very sorry you have this but they can do wonders with transplants nowadays.
I have a family member that had a liver TX over 9 years ago and is still going strong. Get on the TX list ASAP. Prayers for you and your family.
