I've just got my USG Abdomen Pelvis report and it says I've got mild hepatomegaly with fatty liver grade 1-2. I usually have alcohol about three times a week. I'm really worried about how serious this is and if it's going to be dangerous for my health. Could you let me know what advice or medicine you would recommend? And also, how long might it take to reverse this condition?

I used to smoke but quit four months ago. Recently, I visited a pulmonologist because I was having issues with coughing and feeling like I had to take deep breaths. The doctor diagnosed me with bronchitis and GERD and gave me some medicine. However, whenever I stop taking the medicine, my symptoms come back. Now I'm hearing a water-like noise on the left side of my stomach just below my chest. What could be causing these symptoms, and should I be concerned?
