[QUOTE="lucylocket61, post: 2215883, member: 41885"] I think i am falling apart. On top of my recent asthma diagnosis, I today got the results of my ultrasound and I have a fatty liver. GP says the only treatment is for me to lose weight. I pointed out that I have been successfully controlling my blood sugar by diet only for 8 years, and only eat 1200 cals a day max. She looked at me and said I shouldnt reduce my calories any lower. And agreed that my blood sugar levels prove I am not secretly eating rubbish sugary foods. She then suggested referring me for exercise. I pointed out that I have got ME and am currently in a flare up. She looked at me again and agreed that that wasnt a good idea, especially as the last time we tried graded exercise, I ended up with a serious flare up lasting over a year. So I am stuffed. I can do nothing about this fatty liver. My weight just wont budge. My digestive issues means I cannot drop any more fibre from my diet. Realistically, I think I am looking for emotional support, rather than suggestions which I cannot do. I know some on here think keto is the answer to most things, but I cant do keto. I just cant. I end up in all sorts of digestive trouble. I still believe seroxat (an antidepressant), which made me put on 6 stones in 10 months two decades ago, damaged my liver. I could have had a fatty liver for decades, for all I know. I have run out of the ability to juggle my several conditions, and I have another 12 months on the waiting list to see a counselor. I am not sure a counselor will help. I have fought and fought for 8 years, and I am sinking faster than I can bale out healthwise. [/QUOTE]
