@johnwes5819 If you trust your doctor and have confidence in him/her then I guess your questions are answered. If you are feeling a lack of confidence at all though you should see a hepatologist. If you have a diagnosis of fatty liver you do need to make diet modifications to reverse it.
I am not a medical person so I do not want to give you medical advice, I only know my own situation -- AST and ALT not terribly elevated, and never had jaundice!

@contentandwell I trust my doctor but she, to me, is a small fish in a big pond. I believe she knows things but isn't as up to speed as I would like and this is many many doctors later. I wasn't diagnosed with fatty liver, except one liver doctor saying the parenchymal liver disease found in the ultrasound "could" be fatty liver. The others said it's nothing to worry about, you're good. However, the doctor that did mention "could be fatty", has not made an effort to move forward and he made it sound like a biopsy is a waste of time and then there is bleeding potentially in the future. Not sure why but it was brushed under the rug.
