 This is quite a difficult question to answer without more information.
I think that the type of *liver damage* you have is obviously not concerning your Gp. If it did and she knew about it she would not have put you on an unsuitable medication, because you could sue her for a start if things went wrong and she knowingly made this error!! You do not have liver disease from the sound of it - but liver damage, now this may not necassarily have been caused by disease, it could have been caused by any number of other things. The liver has great power to heal itself and obviously your GP is not concerned by this damage and your contraceptive causing problems for you. If you are still concerned go back to see your health care provider asap andd have your mind put at rest. They can talk you through your fears and help, after all they are the experts!
Good luck.
