@truthfinder - I moved your post here because I thought it would be the best way for you to connect with the most members on this site who are familiar with fatty liver who might weigh in on your not seeming to be followed or treated for the fatty liver found in your 2024 ultrasound.

Please meet, if you've not already, @mydogsbestfriend @goldendoodle @oliviab911 @jlharsh @rllh5403 and others who may have some thoughts on how their doctors have proceeded after fatty liver was identified on imaging for them or a loved one or about management of this condition in general.

What did your doctor recommend back in 2024 about addressing the fatty liver with diet and exercise? Were you given specifics or referred to exercise or nutrition specialists for consult?
