I dont drink, but I am on a lot of medication for herniated disks, fibromyalgia, Gerd, sleep medicine for insomnia and also medicine foe depression. I never ate a lot of fast food till the past 5 months due to my mother passing away. My Dr. is sending me to a gastroentorologist. what do you think the problem is and how long does it take to get better.
Hello! Thanks for putting your query in Chat Doctor. I am a Gastroenterologist. Fatty liver has many cause like Hepatitis B, C, Metabolic disorders, NAFLD, alcohol intake etc. So I will suggest you to visit a Hepatologist for evaluation who will advise tests and then manage accordingly. Meanwhile, there are few medicines which I found very useful in my patients are ursodeoxycholic acid and vitamin E. Do regular exercise and reduce your weight if you are overweight, avoid alcohol if you Chat Doctor. I hope I have answered your query and this will help you. Wish you a good health
