But a liver condition this serious in a 26-year-old male, would automatically lead to suspicions that he was a promiscuous homosexual, for Hepatitis C (and other forms too) are like aids, tied to that lifestyle and culture.

Not if they had just ingested half a bottle of Tylenol, it wouldn't. The healthiest man alive would risk ending up on a transplant waiting list within hours.

Oh, you are quite right there, I am well aware of what acetominophen can do. Why on earth do people take it, when aspirin would be twice as effective a pain killer with not a thousandth the liver risk? A few tylenol with alcohol, kiss the cruel world goodbye.

I meant, of course, if the liver was in that shape and no other etiology or history was available.
