If iam 28 yrs old got fatty liver, not obese, not diabetic, no medecines, no alcohol, can i rule out hep if i tested neg hiv, hep a, b, c 1, 5 post exposure?

Fatty liver: If you have tested negative for viral hep recently, you can probably rule it out. There are other causes of NASH (non-alcoholic steatohepatitis or fatty liver). Medications, autoimmune or inherited liver disease, rapid weight loss, and malnutrition. Make sure you rule these out as well.
