[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for posting your query in Chat Doctor, I understand your concern. If the ultrasound has shown you that you have fatty liver and an enlarged spleen, it's bad that you haven't taken treatment for the same since you got the report last month.  The fatty liver (if you have non-alcoholic fatty liver disease) could be the reason behind your enlarged spleen. Or there are many other liver disorders which could have both that you have mentioned.  Leaving an enlarged spleen untreated is very dangerous as it can lead to sudden rupture and massive blood loss and therefore sudden death. I suggest you to consult a physician right away and get a few relevant blood investigations done, like LFT (liver function test) and also other routine tests to rule out other infectious cause of your symptoms. If there is underlying infection, treating it will treat the enlarged spleen too.Otherwise, the doctor might suggest removal of the spleen (splenectomy). Do get the help of a physician at the soonest. Hope this answers your query and my suggestion is of help. Wish you good health, take care.
