Went to ER got pain in side. Ct showed vein to liver severely blocked. Portal venus disease. Referred to gastro Dr. Then lots of labs. Labs were all normal except a positive Ebstein Barr with positive SNA & ANA with low titers. Found a lesion on liver. Niwgping for an MRI. NOT a drinker! Forty two yrs old. Just wish I knew what this was & is it fixable?

WorriedMom -Saw your post & wanted to reach out to you. Glad you are going to have an MRI. Note that the Epstein Barr result is unlikely to be related; practically everyone tests positive EB. The lesion may be totally benign, as that is another common occurrence. However, the blockage needs a solid diagnosis, and yes, these are usually fixable. And I assume your doc will have you follow up with repeat labs to see if those titers need follow-up or just an artifact from all that is going on.
