NAFLD is linked to hypothyroidism and I read it's now called Hypothyroidism-induced nonalcoholic fatty liver disease or HIN for short when thyroid is involved.I aquired fatty liver after thyroid issues started also gallstones for fun of it too.
Routine bloods done by endo picked up raised ALT'S so ultrasound performed and fatty liver and gallstones found. Shocked as vlc, low fat, low carb diet as we do when thyroid makes us overweight for no sodding reason!
I've worked hard with diet ( actually increased calories, protein and carbs), exercise and limiting alcohol and it looks like I've reversed it but only a scan or ultrasound would confirm that I think ( I do think taking berberine helped).
I also have low inorganic phosphate but don't know if connected to thyroid issues 🤷♀️
Thanks for your reply, corr that sounds so awful!! I’m glad you’re doing a bit better now.
Are ALT and AST the same thing in liver profile? 🤔
What really strikes me after reading your comment is that I’ve never ever struggled w weight gain…if anything I have always been on the low end of normal and struggle not to be underweight.
I’m also hesistant to take anything like berberine as o think this lowers blood sugar? My blood sugar is on the low side and randomly tanks…especially on thyroid meds for some reason. 🤔
I wondered if the low bone profile bloods could be linked to being over medicated?
AST's and ALT's different. I have had raised AST's but not all the time.I have basically have got metabolism syndrome.
Larger waist compared to body, likely I have/had insulin resistance, bp was a bit raised, all cholesterols were high or low, couldn't lose weight for love nor money. I think I've gone just over a year of normal bloods now.
I'm a bit complex!
Someone more knowledgeable will hopefully explain things to us.
I’m so glad you’ve got your bloods back to normal! Sounds like you’re making good progress!
Yes we sound v different for sure. Interesting you mention insulin resistance because I was actually diagnosed PCOS a few years back but have absolutely zero signs on IR. I have always had a v small waist and next to no tummy fat which I’ve always thought was weird tbh considering I’m quite a sedentary person. I’ve also never had a period tho so my hormone issues are long standing since my teens.
It so interesting how hormone issues differ so much person to person! 🤔
