Had one a few weeks again. Showed a fatty liver

I had a liver ultrasound done last year. I have had for years abnormal liver function blood test-this was my first indication of diabetes and then diagnosed with non alcohlic fatty liver disease. The great thing is with this surgery it will get this under control and reverse the condition...I will never say cure as once diagnosed you will also have it but it will put it in remission.

Kasier has everyone get an ultra sound before surgery. Mine showed a that I had a fatty liver :(...I wonder how I'm doing now that I'm down 30 lbs.???? I'm hoping at my 5 month post op appt. I can get one done :).

I had one several months ago and there was discomfort but not real pain. I was SHOCKED when the Gastroentologist told me I had an enlarged liver just be feeling it! My blood tests have always been normal so it was very depressing to find out that I have a fatty/enlarged liver. He is the one that put WLS in my head. At first I was insulted and pissed off that he had the nerve to say that to me but I started researching and I hope to get sleeved in December (hoping I don't chicken out).

I panicked and did a ton of research after finding out about my liver and the good thing is that the liver is the only organ that can regenerate itself. The bad thing is that if it gets bad enough it turns to cirrhosis and that is permanent damage. One of the things that opened my mind to WLS. I have the liver of a heavy drinker and I don't drink at all.
