Fatty liver disease

Fatty liver disease

Got this diagnosis based on biochemistry and ultrasound results. Did the examination after COVID and this was discovered. Nothing hurt before this, now there's a dull ache in the right side. Anyone else with the same problem, what are you treating it with, what are you eating? Let's chat

"...now there's a dull ache in the right side..."
It's not the liver that's aching—it has no nerve endings.
The gallbladder works in tandem with the liver, and they suffer together.
It's not all that simple.

The ultrasound didn't find anything with the gallbladder - walls aren't thickened, no sediment - everything's fine

Just ask the doctor who gave you that diagnosis—everything is individual, and you need the doctor's advice.

Ultrasound is crap, it doesn't show the condition of the organ (whether it's sick or not)
All organs work in pairs (look up 'paired human organs' online),
Like on scales: balance = normal, imbalance = problems with both (excess energy is bad, lack of energy is also bad).
There's also energy stagnation in organs, but that's a complete disaster..

Of course I asked. I created this topic to talk with people who have similar problems, not to be sent back to the doctor.

Then you need a specialist...no idea which one...
Are there any here? Did you pick the wrong forum?

You need to see a hepatologist. It's practically impossible to cure. It's not living, it's being on a strict diet. They prescribe hepatoprotectors. A smart hepatologist said it's a money scam. They practically do nothing. Now they prescribe Ursosan. The dose is according to weight. Take it for 3 months. Relief is possible.

Ursosan doesn't suit me. They prescribed Heptral. The doctor wasn't so pessimistic, but the treatment is long.

These are drugs from the same class. Get treated. If your body is young enough, you'll manage.

I have fatty liver disease🙃
My life is a diet. An endless diet. Pain from breaking the diet.
Sometimes I fall into depression (very often and I see no meaning in my life). Breaking the diet leads to pain in my case (I don't know how it is for you). I take medication when things get really bad. The doctor says not to break the diet, etc., etc.
It's very difficult. But on the plus side, I eat! Though all the anorexics would envy my bones.😘 Obesity is no longer a threat to you.

Are your liver indicators and ultrasound normal now? How long have you been on the diet?

Girls, we don't even have decent doctors here. I talk to a lot of people, and I've had to go around to different doctors myself. They just replace one set of pills with another, one doctor sends you to another doctor. It's a vicious cycle. There are no good doctors. Wishing everyone happiness and good health!

Oh, I know that feeling.. that's exactly why I'm asking those who are already undergoing treatment or on a diet—I'm interested in what exactly people eat, what restrictions they have, etc... there's just so much information out there.

I didn't have fatty liver disease. After taking oral contraceptives, my right side started aching. An ultrasound showed sand and small stones in my gallbladder. The doctor said that birth control pills trigger stones and there's also a hereditary factor. They prescribed Ursosan to dissolve the stones. I took it for a long time. It didn't help. I'm not taking it now. The doctor doesn't recommend removal yet.

On the right side, there is also the duodenum. If the diet is not followed, it can cause pain. Also, have a gastroscopy done to rule out any issues with it.

My cousin has fatty liver disease, but she doesn't feel any pain. She is overweight. She eats whatever she wants, including fatty foods. The doctor doing the ultrasound said she can tell right away if someone has fatty liver disease. If there's excess weight, then yes. It's like the liver of a fat goose. Excess fat deposits on any organs. The more excess weight there is, the more it deposits on larger organs, including the heart.

No, not from the same class. Ursosan doesn't lower cholesterol. It prevents bile from crystallizing and turning into stones. Heptral, on the other hand, is specifically for lowering cholesterol. I've taken both.

It doesn't hurt until it does... If I were in her place, I wouldn't eat everything in sight and would lose weight.

For diabetes and liver issues, I used to drink artichoke leaf infusion, but then I switched to Hoficin. With pills, there's less hassle. No need to brew, steep, or strain, and the effect is the same. And for women during menopause, it's an excellent remedy overall—it normalizes hormonal balance.

Hello. I was also diagnosed with fatty liver disease. By chance. I gained weight from overeating. But not just overeating, excuse my language, I stuffed myself—belyashi, pizza, fried foods... basically, a lot of trans fats, carbs, and late-night meals. I have cholecystitis. And after such feasting, my side started to hurt. The doctor sent me for an ultrasound. Well, they found it. Now I'm on a diet, drinking more water, and doing aerobic exercises (walking, cycling, or using a stationary bike). I took Hofitol for a month to help with bile flow—I felt so bloated. The hepatologist prescribed Ursosan, but it was discontinued. It didn't agree with me. It aggravated my gastritis. They prescribed Esslidin instead. And, of course, weight loss.

You're wrong, fatty liver disease occurs in both thin people and overweight people. Being overweight doesn't necessarily mean you have fatty liver disease. Fatty liver can start after taking medications, after rapid weight loss, after having an illness. The main thing is following a diet and taking hepatoprotectors, although their effectiveness isn't proven, but doctors prescribe them. You also need to monitor ALT and AST levels and other liver indicators. And you also need to move a lot. It's hard to find a good, competent doctor, but you can't despair. If you have fatty liver disease, then there are likely problems with the gallbladder, pancreas, and intestines too.

Good evening. Could you please tell me if you've ever had constant pain in your right side? I've been taking Yasmin for over a year and a half and never thought it might be because of it. About three weeks ago, I had blood tests done, and the doctor said everything was normal, nothing to complain about. Sometimes I get a pain in my right side just below the ribs, it lasts for a few days and then goes away. I'm going for an ultrasound in the coming days.

My brother has this diagnosis. The doctor prescribed a diet and physical activity, along with some pills as well. After watching Dr. Petrik on YouTube, I learned there's no magic cure for fatty liver disease—only physical activity, diet, and lifestyle changes. Either Dr. Petrik or another doctor mentioned that pain on the right side might occur because the liver enlarges and, as I understood, something ends up pressing somewhere. Liver markers aren't indicators; only an ultrasound is. Get well soon!

The liver is already sick and barely holding on, as fat has replaced its cells. And if a person continues to eat everything without restraint, cirrhosis with ascites and a painful death lie ahead.
