To be honest, I quit drinking by God's grace in 2000. But I picked up a fairly hardcore Vicodin habit. Than after quitting that, gained weight. I'm an old punk rocker lady and regret these choices.
My symptoms started w vague stomachaches that I attributed to age. But I got an upper and lower, it was fine. Than if I took medicine, like tylenols, I had trouble w nausea and stomachache. I take psychiatric drugs for 20 years. And 2 years back, on depekote er, I experienced stomachaches and fatigue. A feeling of my body is not processing medication anymore. This happened again, when common penicillin gave me a severe flu for 5 weeks. Stomachache urq pain and nausea. They said finally, you have fatty liver, mild. Lose weight.
Well, I almost daily have severe fatigue, stomachaches, ruq pain. The Drs ARE NOT CONCERNED! Since it's JUST fatty liver. It was found in s Ultrasound. Also I have pain where our pancreas is, lower left side. I'm on ketogenic, because the Drs just said lose weight. But unsure if ketogenic is safe. I am on medication, but dropped estrogen and remeron.
I don't have insurance just yet, but do you guys think this could be worse or kidneys or what tests and Drs should I go to. I'm sick daily. My GPS, and gastric doc think this is s walk in the park....
It does lead to cirrhosis. Any comments welcome
