How does Cirrhosis work

I get that its drinking yourself to death, but I'm reading online that once the road to Cirrhosis is started that you have to stop drinking alcohol for the rest of your life or else you will inevitably and unstoppably die from liver failure?
What's /sci/s take on this? If you've experienced 0 symptoms other than your right side slightly aching like a cramp, and only after a multi day long bender, that doesn't mean your organ is shot now right?
Are we all one bender away from forced perma alc abstinence?
