As Stephen suggest, test your platelet count (you shall get results the next day) and calculate your APRI score:

If platelet count (APRI) is normal then you should repeat Fibroscan...but if platelet count is very low (APRI high) then I would go straight for biopsy...

I have seen several Fibrosis score based on blood tests 1 specific test formula CHB-LFC is using 4 deferent valuations. APRI, FIB-4, GUCI and Lok scores.

Anyone has any idea what these scores means or how accurate are they?
This is my first month ever being on birth control and i'm on the 28-day pack pills called Apri. i started taking the last week the "reminder pills" 3 days ago and the way i understood it is that i'm supposed to get my period on the first day i took the reminder pills...could i be pregnant or is there something else wrong?
OK. So I was on Apri for a year when I was with my bf. My last period on Apri was July 18, 2008. After that period, I took about 4 of the pills before I decided to go off the pill for a few months, since my bf and I broke up months ago and I don't like taking medicine/hormones I don't need. Naturally, my period started again a few days after I stopped taking the pill, so maybe the beginning of August. Last week, I made a really stupid, stupid mistake and slept with my ex w/o protection.

I was down to 80k before Tx (S+O). I SVRed at 12 weeks post-EOT, and my platelets were up to 135k at the last blood test. I'm told that they should creep up little by little, but whether they will ever get back to where they should be (200k?) is anyone's guess.
I had some really odd symptoms with Yasmin and begged my dr to take me off of it, since then I was on Apri, which is just generic desogen. Initally did much better on this one so I'm not sure how yaz/yasmin works but I can say my withdrawal bleed "period" got way longer on it- I used to only bleed for 4 days on Aleese, then gradually this increased and due to weight gain and water retention switched to Yasmin...
I started my period on Monday November 14th and started Apri birth control on Wednesday November 16
I have taken it religiously every night at 8:50pm and havent missed a pill I had unprotected sex several times on Sunday November 27, however he did not come inside me. I was just wondering if my birth control was affective then and if there is any chance I should be worried about a pregnancy?
I have one sex partner. Please help! I am also on birth control Apri and have been having extreme acne under my jawline on my neck (I read this is hormonal). Please give me your input on what you think is wrong.
Hi, I was on the pill Apri for a little over a yr. Had a laparoscopy and hysteroscopy for endo, a polyp and a cyst. After that I wanted to try for a baby. Anyways, I stopped my birth control the same day I had my surgery and I've never had a problem. I'm not sure about everyone but that was what happened to me. Everything was fine. I had surgery on June 25th, 2010 and so it's been almost 3 weeks. I hope this helps. Good luck, take care!
