Hi, I recently had an Ultrasound scan and full blood count. My results are fatty liver and my blood shows my liver has raised levels. My GP asked me if I am a heavy drinker because this kind of raised level in my blood is seen in heavy drinkers. i told my GP I don't drink at all. My GP said, that is good news because the raised levels will be due to the fatty liver and to watch my diet.

What does this mean, do I have non alcoholic liver disease? I'm a little puzzled and would appreciate some advice. I should have asked my GP more at the time but didn't because I was I'm shock that I had been told I have fatty liver.

Thank you.
