[QUOTE="carina62, post: 1455353, member: 25670"] hello All, sorry if I've emailed a question about Fatty Liver before but I just can't help feeling that I should be more concerned about this than I am. I was diagnosed (by chance) with fatty liver 2 years ago, when I thought at the time I had gallstones. I am also a T2 and apparently this can go hand in hand with diabetes. Basically, I was just 'sent away' by my GP and he said to change my lifestyle (easier said than done). I am trying SO hard to lose weight as I know how important it is for my health (I am classed obese) but my concern about Fatty Liver is a) I have no idea how long I've had it - could be years the GP said and b) more concerning, how much damage (if any) has it done to my liver. I do have LFT's (liver function tests) on an annual basis but are these sufficient enough to inform me (and the GP) that there is nothing to worry about? I'm not sure what to do. [/QUOTE]
