Here is the link it's spot on as I am able to calculate my own and it's exactly what the Transplant Center reports back to me each 3 months. Hope it helps !!
For those who have asked; the Child-pugh level is determined on bloods and the level of ascites. The MELD is calculated by results from a biopsy which I can't have as my clotting level is so low.
Have a great weekend,

Congratulations Nirmalee! Each week is a wonderful accomplishment all by itself. Do you have a current C-P score? With an RVR, the likelihood of success is high. It's obvious that you're responding well and everything you can do to treat yourself right is another feather in your cap! Good luck!

Well, I have just finished week 8 and my 4 week test was UND. Things have now settled down and my bilirubin level is down. I am trying to get my Child-Pugh level down through diet and healthy things.
And here is child pugh calculator

MELD is not calculated by Biopsy.
it is calculated by
Using Total Billirubin
Creatinine
and INR
and whether or not the patient is on dialysis
