In acute cases of hepatitis the brain can be influenced by the disease; it can also takes its toll upon one's heart as the liver fails and the body weakens.

For a while, one's lymph nodes may try to collect the toxins in an effort to protect the body, but the lymph nodes cannot do this for long. Hepatitis left untreated can develop into liver cancer.
