Guest guest Posted November 24, 2003 Report Share Posted November 24, 2003 I just got back the results from my abdominal ultrasound. I have no gallstones (shoot!) but I have a " fatty liver. " What the heck is that? To say that anything I have is fatty, seems redundant to me, :-) but I'm wondering if this will hinder or postpone my surgery. Have any of you heard of this?

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2003 Report Share Posted November 24, 2003 Cindy, I as well as many others have a fatty liver, you could say it goes with the territory. Sometimes the dr. will want you to lose some weight before surgery, abdominal organs lose weight first. Hope this helps some. Stef Re: Fatty Liver?
