As long as there has been one upper gastrointestinal bleeding, it means that cirrhosis has entered the decompensated stage, commonly known as the advanced stage. In this stage, the residual liver function is less than 30% of normal liver function, which cannot meet the normal needs of the body, and the normal life expectancy will be affected. As for how long you can live, you have to judge based on the residual liver function. If there has never been any hepatic encephalopathy, total bilirubin is less than 51μmol/L, albumin is less than 28g/L, the amount of ascites is less than 1,000ml, active treatment is needed, and alcoholic cirrhosis should be absolutely abstained from alcohol. Hepatitis B cirrhosis and Hepatitis C cirrhosis should be treated with antiviral therapy, and hepatoprotective therapy during the acute inflammatory phase of the liver, and it is still possible to live 10 years or more. If there has been hepatic encephalopathy, the amount of hepatic ascites is greater than 1,000 ml, the total bilirubin is greater than 51 μmol/L, and the albumin is less than 28 g/L, which means that the residual function of the liver has been very poor, and the life expectancy is often 1-2 years.
