You have a few more years left and the last few months will be excruciating pain that even morphine wont completely kill

Well, life expectancy varies from one patient to another. Some people who do not have a lot of disease on liver biopsy, and who do well with medications, can expect to do well for years and years. These people can potentially have a life expectancy unaffected by their liver disease. Individuals with severe autoimmune hepatitis, as well as those who choose not to be treated, can develop liver failure and potentially need a liver transplant.
