Hi,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic,
I have gone through all the detail provide by you. You have two medical issues right now one is Gonorrhea which can be treated by appropriate antibiotics.
Other issue is fatty infiltration of liver that can be due to various cause like alcohol,diabetes,Obesity etc.
Viral hepatitis or HIV still not tested hence you should wait till result are available.
There is good treatment available for hepatitis and even HIV and both are very slow and chronic disease so there is no question of end of life.
You should have positive attitude about your problems and face them.
Please do not feel depressed and wait till your result of test come.
If you are not detected to have any of such diseases.
In both the cases you will be able to have normal life.
Hope this helps you.
Good Luck.
