Brief Answer:
Answer given below
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for the additional information.
You do not have a simple fatty liver.
You have the following issues -
1. Fatty liver
2. Early fibrosis ( scarring of liver)
3. The liver enzymes are mildly raised indicating liver cell damage
4. The albumin globulin ratio is reversed. This along with fibrosis indicate you have chronic liver disease.
More tests need to be done.
Viral markers, auto immune and metabolic work up and upper GI endoscopy are to be done.
Consult your Gastroenterologist/Hepatologist for these tests.
