I'm really concerned about my cousin's dad. He's dealing with mild hepatomegaly and a grade 1 fatty liver, plus he's got total lung damage. The doctors have basically said there's not much hope and mentioned we might only have as little as 15 to 30 days. Is there anything we can do or try? Any advice would be really appreciated.

I'm a bit concerned about taking Psorid 50 mg because I recently had gallbladder stones detected and removed, and now they've found HCV, though my RNA quantification came back negative. Could this medication affect my liver in any way?
