He told me to repeat all labs and u/s in 6months..told me to lose weigh and exercise.. he said I was not a candidate for weight loss surgery or any medication. But he said they are working on new meds for nash and by the end of the year they might be ready. It is hard for me to understand there is nothing to help ..maybe the future will bring hope..my condition is hereditary..I have no markers for nash..thanks for checking ...I will be checking with mayo to see if they post new treatments

@bettersleep68, I was diagnosed with a progressive liver disease nearly 20 years ago, and it has no cure (yet). So, I can understand how you must be feeling to know that there is no 'medication', available to cure fatty liver disease. Remember that there are things that you can do to improve your outcome and your doctor is doing the right thing by advising weight loss and by repeating your labs at regular intervals. Getting a diagnosis early is givng to be in your favor.

Here is the link to Liver Disease from from Mayo Clinic Health Library > Diseases and Conditions
