Fatty Liver: Can cause some of the pain, and Liver function tests to be elevated. Weight loss is the only therapy with sufficient evidence suggesting it is beneficial and safe. A reasonable goal for many patients is to lose 0.5 to 1 kg/week (1 to 2 lb/week). Vaccination against Hep A and B recommended. Doctor can help with indigestion symptoms.
