I recently had an ultrasound done and its showing my liver is 23 cm and it also said hepatology with fatty filtration of liver. i cant get in with my doctor for another few weeks. im worried this is something serious. what exactly does this mean?

It looks like you have fatty liver, which is not uncommon. It can lead to inflammation, which causes abnormal liver function tests. If you are overweight, you should try to lose weight as this will help the fatty liver. Your doctor can help with weight loss. Be careful with medicines metabolized by the liver if your liver function tests are abnormal. No more than 3g acetaminophen daily. Good luck!

Fatty infiltration of the liver is very common. It can occasionally result in damage to the liver and long-term liver disease, but it usually does not progress to that. Your gastroenterologist will need to do more tests on your liver to determine if there is any signs of liver damage now. In the meantime, starting on a weight loss diet and avoiding alcohol can be helpful. Good luck.
