I'm dealing with grade 2 fatty liver, and I usually drink from moderate to heavy. They've mentioned it's a reversible condition but that it'll take time. I'm also a bit overweight. Can you let me know how long it might take for my liver to recover? And what kind of precautions should I be taking to help speed up the recovery?

Fatty liver grade 2 can be reversed with lifestyle changes, but it will take time, typically several months to a year. Focus on cutting out alcohol, adopting a balanced, low-fat diet, exercising regularly, and losing weight gradually to support liver health and recovery. Be patient, as consistent effort will make a difference over time.

View allI've been experiencing a lot of strange noises coming from my stomach lately. It's like there's a constant rumbling, growling, and gurgling going on, especially after I use the washroom in the morning. I've also noticed that my trips to the bathroom have been a bit concerning since the latrine seems to be a slightly darker color. On top of that, I sometimes get hit with sudden bouts of what feels like dysentery. This has been happening for about 5 to 6 months now. Could you offer any insight into what's going on with my stomach?

I'm really nervous because the doctor recommended that I get a colonoscopy. Is it going to be painful? How should I prepare for the procedure? Also, could this help figure out why I've been experiencing bloating issues?

I've had a fissure for almost 3 years now and my gastro doctor recommended lateral sphincterotomy and an EUA. What exactly does a lateral sphincterotomy involve and why would they need to examine me under anesthesia for this procedure? I'm a bit nervous about what to expect
