Cirrhosis.: Fatty liver can be an early reaction to consistent heavy drinking or from obesity. If the process continues, especially drinking, it cen lead to cirrhosis, and ultimately end stage liver that is disfunctional and atrophied or wasted. Fatty liver is reversible if you stop whatever is causing it, and the SGPT should go back down. If it persists, see your dr. To find the cause.

Fix this now: I'm very glad this was found and thankfully fixing this up will probably save your health. No alcohol for now; you are likely to be tested for hepatitis b and c, autoimmune hepatitis, hemochromatosis and wilson's; each is very treatable if diagnosed on time, lethal if missed. Or your enzymes may be up and liver fatty because it's time for a switch to an intensive aerobic fitness lifestyle.
