Nash... or any Liver problemss

Know what POS me?? and makes me very SAD?!! I've been sickish for 1.5 yrs. (bit over) drs. office?? ppfff (I worked for the medical world, too!) in a few x's over that period. Worthless visits! I knew I'd have to give myself time an see what symptoms I'd get... as time went on, I did get more symptoms.... I've read, read read at home for last 1.5 yrs. or longer! Sigh. I had an older brother long ago, he died age 60 from non alcholic liver disease... LONG long ago drs. sent me to a liver dr. (15 yrs? ago) If a dr. tells me to return I do !!! Think I saw him 2 x's long ago. So.. (: ???? I guess!?? so here it is, new symptoms last yr. or 1.5 yrs. drs. office useless in my opinion. (in there ? 2x in last yr. or 10 mo.).. Nothing. By now I have pimples on my face (age 75!!) ringing in ears sometimes, fatigue, still, after yrs. bit of confusion sometimes... etc.... I GAVE up on the medical world of drs. offices!! Sad since I worked for the medical world!! I've researched at home now for well over a yr.!! I KNOW I have fatty liver and F.L. symptoms, and also liver trouble (non alcholic) killed my 60 yr. old bro. many yrs. ago. Yet does the dr. office, or medical world tell me ANYthing? nope... So no use I go back again, UNTIL I've read, taken notes (almost a yr. now)!!! Till I KNOW what is going on in my body and I can TELL them!! Fatty Liver!! Hello?? It's sad to me.. drs, or nurses don't seem to want to tell patients, other than "there is nothing you can do for that" What??!! No!! My bro. died age 60 from non alcoholic liver problems, then liver fairlure... Does the medical world really think we are that stupid?! I thank God I've had the time over the last yr. or 1.5 yrs. to google, google... SIGH. but I SHOULD not have to go back to family's dr. office and TELL them what tests I need, how I feel again, and what my brother (tall, lean and no alchohol ever) had!!! Grrrr.. AS I said, I worked for the medical world in the gov't of PA... sigh... It's sad, so sad.. Drs. could at least tell patients what to eat, what NOT to eat (I studied nutrition long ago)... they could tell patients to exercise if nothing else.. PPffff. I'm very disappointed in the PA medical world.... Why should a patient have to google, read for 1.5 yrs. to find out what is wrong with them. Instead of hearing "there is nothing you can do for that' why doesn't the medical world at least talk about food, nutrition, exercise, etc., IF NOTHING else?!! I'll Keep reading (maybe another 6 mo.?) but soon go back to drs. office and tell them what I have, TELL them, hey, my tall, lean bro. died from this at age 60 (I'm 75) don't you think someone could at least tell patients what subjects to study! What foods to eat, etc etc... SIGH... sad...
