A 16 cm liver is slightly enlarged. Grade 1 fatty liver is mild and often reversible. It is good that you are on a low fat diet. Continue with weight management, avoid alcohol and fried food, and stay active. No medicine is needed unless liver enzymes rise. Recheck every 6 months.

I am diabetic with an HbA1c level of 7.6 H. My liver function tests show SGPT 60.5 H, ALP 50.2 L, and SGOT 49.7 H. The hepatitis B surface antigen test is reactive. Ultrasound shows the liver is normal in size and shape, but has grade one fatty changes. My HBV DNA quantitative by real time PCR is 116801, and HBeAg is 0.25. My doctor diagnosed me with hepatitis B, but did not prescribe any medication. I am a little confused about my condition and would appreciate an explanation to help clear my doubts. I have provided the test results above.
