Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this finding and all the inconveniences this must have caused you. Infiltration means an unexpected tissue. What this tissue is determines whether this is of concern or not. There are many other relevant details on the report that must be considered before saying more about this conclusion. I will suggest you upload it to me as reported for an independent, comprehensive and informative response.

Brief Answer:
I need to know what the infiltration is all about!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for this added information. It is useful and makes us think there is something not very okay with the liver. This is unlikely to be of great concern seen that all other exams are normal. However, I Will like to know your responses to the following questions.

1. What is your weight and height?
2. Do you drink alcohol and if yes, in what quantities?
3. Do you have any other symptoms?

I will return to you as soon as these responses come in. Until then, I wish you well.

Brief Answer:
Probably fatty infiltrations

Detailed Answer:
HI,

Your BMI is too much and this infiltration is probably a fatty liver disease. I will recommend that you establish a plan through reduced calories intake and increased daily exercise to loss weight. This will help burn away fats from the body and liver and allow a return to normal of the liver.

I hope this helps. Let me know what your immediate thoughts are.
