I wasn't given any facts , I asked Dr. he said lose weight and there is no treatment no advice on what to eat or what not, several years later I still haven't been seen by a consultant or EP .
No help from doctors great help from social media and forums
There was nothing to do about the issue and HEP B so didn't get any.
I ws told iv got a fatty liver but haven't had any info,no help n don't know whether it's a bad percentage of the liver?, so I'm not tò sure where to look up info on the net either.
The Dr just told me I was Terminal ...and nothing more ....researched the web myself for more information
Just told I had fatty liver disease and should try to lose a bit of weight. No other info or follow up
No one, not even my physician said squat. I eventually asked how the test results came out. The doctor just said casual that oh the results said you have a fatty liver and went on to another subject. I had to bring the conversation back to have him explain what it was. Since then I've been doing the research on my own with a lot of help from Google.
I didn't get any facts don't know what stage my Chrosis is in. Just worry all the time .
Was told I have Auto Immune Hep. and that I need to lose weight and no alcohol. I don't drink. Was put on Vitamen E 400 mg twice a day. That was almost 2 years ago. Liver enzymes are always good. My story is that I had went to the emergency room 2 years ago next month with pain. They did a CT scan and said it was a kidney stone. A couple days later I ask for a copy of report, found that my liver was severely enlarged. Then I remember that 4 months prior my PCP had done a CT scan and said everything was fine. So I ask for a copy of that report and found they were the same. No one said a word. Needless to say, I found a new PCP. She sent me to the Gastro who done an upper and lower GI and a liver biopsy... My PCP done allot of blood work and then sent me to Rheumatologists because I was testing positive for Lupus at a low titer and nothing has came of it yet. But I do have osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, barrettes esophagus and Diabetes which all has developed since the auto immune hepatitis diagnosis. I'm wondering which autoimmune disorder will come out next. I'm beginning to think we are just test subjects that the medical field gets paid to play with. I'm sick of meds and I'm sick of believing that I have this liver problem when I'm not sure that I do or at least I am wrestling with believing it. I ask if I was having another biopsy. He said no, I ask about a CT scan and he asked why? I said to see if its gotten worse. He said no he didn't want to expose me to any more radiation than I have to be. But my PCP is going to do a ultrasound to check it.
