My doctor told me that I have a weak liver, and that is why I lost 7 kg. But my LFT is normal. Is it possible to still have a weak liver even after a normal LFT test?

A normal LFT usually means your liver is functioning well. The term weak liver is not a formal diagnosis it may refer to mild digestion or nutrient absorption issues. Unexplained weight loss should be looked into further with tests like an ultrasound or vitamin checks. Visit the doctor for consultation.

Hello doctor I have been facing digestion issues for the past 2 years. Initially I had grade A esophagitis but now it is cured. My digestion problem is almost 80 percent cured but I have noticed that almost every day I feel vibration and bloating in my stomach especially around 1 30 AM to 3 AM. This does not happen if I am not sleeping. I also have fatty liver. My weight is 68 kg and height is 151 cm. Please review my report and let me know if this is a serious issue or not? Thank you in advance.
