It’s a possibility that your fatty liver has progressed to NASH (non alcoholic steatopathic hepatitis). A lot of people have fatty livers that really go no further than that, but some can develop into NASH. In NASH, fat builds up in the liver and eventually causes scar tissue. Scar tissue then replaces healthy tissue which is cirrhosis. You seem to have a lot of the symptoms that comes with cirrhosis. No one really knows why one person progresses to cirrhosis with a fatty liver while someone else doesn’t. You must find out what is going on with your liver. Other things can cause those numbers to elevate, so don’t automatically assume that you are in liver failure. A biopsy will tell the true story. Since your numbers have elevated so much along with those symptoms, you really should get a biopsy done. There’s nothing much to them. I have had 3 and going to get another done in about 2 weeks. Before you even mention the word transplant, find out what is happening.
