Oh, great. Very supportive. Not.It was written down in my case notes and Consultant said: 'Lets see what the results are from your Liver Scan, and deal with that situation and I'll see you again in 6 week's = that was it.

How's your chest today?
That's disgusting. What did your HR or union say about it all?Hi Vicky , I did work part time but with overtime as well . I gave it up to look after Ron as he was struggling and though that it was better to be here where I could be on hand when needed. My employer made it very difficult to keep working and do that at the same time . They made it clear that if I didn't work when they needed me to then they would have no choice but to sack me .
Thank god they are there to sort this out. I guess once totally diagnosed they can try and help you out.@ickihun - Hi Vicky.. Just received this morning a copy of the letter sent to my GP from the Liver Specialist. It says: My LFT's blood results have been abnormal for a number of years, and they are somewhat difficult to interpret, and could possibly indicate NAFLD, but could be a possibility of other Aetiologies. And He noticed I have 'Liver Palms' (very red palms of the hands). Go's on to say: The Fibroscan showed a degree of Fibrosis and the Liver stiffness would be at the advanced end of the fibrosis spectrum. Ideally I should have a Liver Biopsy done, but before invasive tests are carried out, a Ultrasound Scan and extensive blood test to be done (had the blood tests done yesterday) and scan this afternoon. And the answer to your question: do I eat a lot of fruit? = No. Eat grapes once a week and 3 maybe 4 Bananas a week. William x. Oh and by BMI has been reduced since a month ago.
Tomorrow will be a brighter day.@ickihun - Things have to start getting better Vicky. I am getting really, really **** ed Off of late with Health Issues. And I am Hungry now!! Just call me 'Mr Grumps'(R does). William x
All the best for the scan.@ickihun - Hi Vicky.. Just received this morning a copy of the letter sent to my GP from the Liver Specialist.

I am seeing Practise Diabetic Nurse this afternoon about my blood sugars (I am really Pucked Off!!!) Then shooting off to get to the Hospital for 5.20pm Appointment Scan. Then to my Sisters for meal, will be home by 10pm'ish. Have a good day everyone.
I love your dedicationYay ... got the OK from the doc today to reduce my Glic further.
Half a pill (40gr) daily for a few weeks, and if still in single figures after that, I can stop taking it - but meantime, keep monitoring and testing bloods.
I love my doctor .... x
It could be worse, I call my other half Victor on occasion ... just to remind him he is being a moody devil@ickihun - Things have to start getting better Vicky. I am getting really, really **** ed Off of late with Health Issues. And I am Hungry now!! Just call me 'Mr Grumps'(R does). William x
So really fruit can't be a culprit, carbs can be, and probably are, the more likely culprit (if the fatty liver developed before bgs were controlled)I've had a scan before @liam1955 . is it an ultrascan?
Mine discovered fatty liver, a little.
My enzymes have decreased hugely on lchf and it looks on the face of it that my fatty liver has gone.
I quizzed specialist and asked him outright if fruit can cause fatty liver. He said fruit will have increased my bgs hence fatty liver.
Do you eat much fruit?
I was eating 3-4 pieces a day before lchf as I only liked a little veg.
See what results say. I'm sure something can be tweeked if necessary.
I know you've always said the biopsy was needed because of irregularity. What was the results hun?
As in MeldrewIt could be worse, I call my other half Victor on occasion ... just to remind him he is being a moody devil
@debrasue have you been to York? I love the place. A bigger version of Durham. Very interesting place too.I've been working this afternoon and I was sent a promo piece for proofreading which made me think of you - the Night Owls' Guide to Nightlife in York. Such venues as The Hop, the Evil Eye, Revolution, Rustique, The York Roast Co, Little Italy and Fibbers were mentioned. Sounds like a pretty fun place!
Apparently too much fruit can contribute to that.So really fruit can't be a culprit, carbs can be, and probably are, the more likely culprit (if the fatty liver developed before bgs were controlled)
Well done @magsiesssYay ... got the OK from the doc today to reduce my Glic further.
