Dx of gallstones and fatty liver disease

Posted by marshabittinger @marshabittinger, Jun 10, 2020

I have had abdominal pain, bloating, indigestion and just had MRI that reports gallstones in gallbladder and slight fatty liver disease. I am waiting to hear from my surgeon whether to have gall bladder removed. From my research today, I feel reluctant to remove gall bladder and more towards trying to eat better and exercise more. What are your experiences or thoughts about this?

I have NAFLD too because both my parents were alcoholics. I also have hemochromatosis, Lupus, Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis along with Graves’ disease. I recently had an ultrasound done that said I had Hepatocellular Disease such as Steatosis was suggested, does anyone know if that is a fancy way of saying I have fatty liver disease?

@lclark918 steatoaia apparently means fatty liver disease, according to this:
