I have joined this group because i have been diagnosed with NAFLD for several years, never had any symptoms or abnormal lab, although i do some sort of inflammatory arthropathy and uveitis. I saw a GI dr recently who ordered a fibroscan and that showed steatosis grade 3 (67% or more of fatty change within the liver) and fibrosis stage 4. The CAP score was 400 and the kPa score was 18.2. These numbers are all high. The GI said she wasnt convinced i had cirrhosis and wanted to draw some additional lab which we are doing this week. Can anyone give me any feedback on this situation. Those results sound scary. I read that the fibro scan is relatively accurate when it is NAFLD, and less accurate in other conditions. I am 53 yr old female, non-drinker, have several other comorbidities.Most importantly i think is that i am on Ozempic currently and losing some weight.

@stephkleier None of us are doctors here so we can’t respond to your lab values. The physician is the best person to talk with. Have you made a follow-up appointment with the GI doc? If the doctor has a patient portal, you can ask your questions there.
Besides the lab values, are any new symptoms bothering you?
