Diagnosed With Fatty Liver Grade I

Was diagnosed with fatty liver grade I (as specified in report) a year back. Got the ultrasound done again this year, and found "Liver is enlarged in size and bright in echo pattern" (on the report, not mentioning any grade and else everything is fine in full abdomen report).

Also, got the lipid profiled done which states Cholesterol Total = 148.00; Triglycerides = 82.00; HDL Cholesterol = 36.00; LDL Cholesterol = 95.60; VLDL Cholesterol = 16.40 and Non-HDL Cholesterol = 112.00

I consume maximum 2-3 beers (or Quarter in Hard Drink) in a month and smoke 4-5 sticks a day.

What do you suggest, my approach should be? Thanks in advance.

Hi there,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
You still have fatty liver.
Get a liver function test done to see if it is simple fatty liver or fatty liver with inflammation.
Try to quit alcohol intake.
If you are obese, try to reduce weight.

I hope that answers your query.
Regards.
