General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for writing to HCM.
From the ultrasound report what you have posted, it says that you are having 'gall stone disease'.
There are gall stones which has been noted in gall bladder and because of back pressure to the liver, it has affected the liver as well.
It would be advisable to undergo laproscopic cholecystectomy to remove gall stones.
Also, kindly abstain from intake of alcohol (if you are alcoholic) and consume less fatty diet.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
I find this answer helpful
