      thanks for the info, I have been reading stories from where you said to look, wow so many stories and battles, I am leaning toward the watch and wait and do all I can with nutrition, I am just like many I have seen post about side effects, I seem to get most of them.  I have a blood clotting disorder, I have three, so I am on blood thinners for life until the risk is to high to take them.  So when I see the effects on your liver and the need to rest or be inactive I worry about clotts and health issues from how it will effect me.  I can not take alot of meds. due to the thinners, still not sure what to do, but I do have a strong faith and believe with all my heart that even if I don't fully understand God has a plan.
