[|Human|] Hello Dr. Mintz! I just want to ask what is the connection of Hepatitis B to Fatty Liver? My cousin has a fatty liver and was surprised when her Sgpt and Sgot count did not lower after a month of medication. She is now starting another month of medication with stronger doses of medicine as advised by her physician. Can you please help us find out the cause and possible solution for her problem..?
