About Liver Disease
Liver Disease is a blanket term describing any number of diseases that affect the liver. They include hepatitis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, cirrhosis, cancer, and primary biliary cirrhosis. Many liver diseases are accompanied by jaundice and an increased level of bilirubin, which results from the breakup of hemoglobin of dead red blood cells. Normally the liver removes bilirubin and excretes it through bile.
About Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy or Chemo is a cancer treatment which uses chemicals to fight and kill cancer cells. It comes in different forms and can be taken intravenously or orally in a pill form depending on the type and dose needed. Chemo therapy is often invasive and causes serious side effects. It sets out to kill cancer cells but also kills good cells along the way. It cannot determine the good cells from the bad. It must be given in doses because one big dose can actually be fatal.
