I'm dealing with a grade 2 fatty liver, and I'm currently on medication for it. But I'm really worried because if I stop my meds even for a day, I've noticed the pain comes back. It's on the left side just below my ribs, and it's usually triggered by gas buildup. I'm taking Udiliv 150mg, Eiref, and Fibator. Do you think these meds are right for me? And how long does it usually take to get better with this condition?

It seems like you are on the right track with your current medication for fatty liver grade 2. Udiliv 150mg is a good choice to help improve liver function and Eiref can help with gas build up. Fibator is also commonly used to manage cholesterol levels which can benefit liver health. It is important to continue taking these medications as prescribed by your doctor. As for the time it will take to cure you, it is important to understand that fatty liver disease is a chronic condition that may require long-term management. The goal of treatment is to prevent progression of the disease and manage symptoms. It is best to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your condition and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.

But what's odd is that if I wake up in the middle of the night, I don't have the same problem. Is this something I should be concerned about?
