It all depends on the circumstances, but yes, this scenario is possible. Talk to your Dr about diet, alcohol use and other predisposing factors that can be drastically modified to prevent further damage and problems.

No. It usually takes years to go from mild fatty liver to cirrhosis, if the cause of fatty change is not removed. If you are overweight. losing weight is imperative. Do not take any alcohol at all. Avoid acetaminophen.
