fatty liver?
I have slight ankle swelling and pain/discomfort in the liver region. Keep thinking it's something worse, but the tests don't suggest it. Posted on 06/20/08, 09:06 pm |

I got fatty liver from alcohol and it has been 2+ years since I drank and I still have. Supposedly it can take years to resolve, but this seems excessive. I eat a relatively low-fat diet, no real fried foods, etc.

My understanding is that alcohol has nothing to do with your condition. It may have agrevated it and caused a sharper decline in you liver breaking down. Fatty Liver is a complicated disease. I have found alot of information on WebMD and other sights. Has your doctor performed biopsies and catagorized you condition? I am in stage 4 which is the last stage before failure. My enzym levels are low but that only shows that the liver has gone out. Talk with your doctor and get a blood workup and CT scan.
Information will help you know how to take care of yourself.
