During a health crisis involving removal of my sigmoid colon, 3 CT scans showed liver attenuation and the radiologists mentioned fatty liver. I am obese with about 45 pounds left to go for a good weight. I am asymptomatic except that I do bruise easily. I live near Missoula MT. and there is one Gastro clinic that does fibro scans. What should be my first step to seek a diagnosis?
