Is not looking to healthy:( but the good news.... WAHOO!!! NO CANCER!!! that is what the doctor says thank god... but there is a slight problem... ok so they were looking at my balls and they said it was just slight fluid build up not abnormal but usually if it happens it is on the left not the righ.... so they say we needed to check my kidneys so they are looking at my kidneys and they go " oh that is not good"
so i am thinking " AW SHIT NOW WHAT" so they moving the little wand thingy around and they are like " we hate to ask you a personal question but do you or do you think you have a problem controling your drinking"
..... i don't drink much as you all know so i tell them " No why.."
they say "HUMMMM".... " Your by no means obese so do you eat an excess amount of fatty foods..."
... i don't so i tell them " Just what the chow hall feeds me."
another "HUMMM' then " you don't take medication for high blood pressure do you..."
... " I don't Why?!"
...." Well you have an excess amount of fat around your liver right now your liver looks like that of eather a person with a drinking problem or a person who is very obese.... and since your not on medication for high blood pressure some of which are know to cause this problem the only other thing that it might be is well... does diabetes run in your family...." that is when i was like ?!?!?
" Yeah it does. both my grandmothers one has and one had it ( one is dead) and my grandfather had it ( also dead.)"
so they are like....
" well it does not look like anything but excess fat right now but you should keep an eye out for some of the follwing things and if you notice some changes along those lines let your doc know but other then that you need to start eating better immediately...."
so now i am trying to figure out how to get on comrats so that i can go on a diet cause apprentley what the chow hall is feeding me is causing me health problems... so i go in there to find out no cancer which is outstanding but if i keep eating at the mess hall i will get liver problems or diabetes... great lol.... well atleast it is somthing you can control right :)

Fatty liver isn't too much of a big deal. I had it before I lost my weight.
You should watch what you eat carefully and get a complete set of
blood test (chem panel) done including liver and kidney enzymes.
Also request a fasting glucose test and get that done periodically.
I think you're going to be fine....

Agreed
I pretty much told you the same thing that Vixx above has stated.

And it can actually cause huge health issues as it causes your liver to not function at 100%. So yes, you need a full CBC and you need to get your enzymes checked. Also, judging by how you eat, you should definately have a fasting glucose test done.

Dont think that you are in the clear. There are plenty of other things that can be worse than cancer if not taken care of.

Cheers...opps Congrats may be a bit better ; )
Sorry for the late chime in Joe but that is fantastic news. The liver issue is ultimately easier to deal with and get your head around than cancer. The big “C” runs in my family and I have seen it take to many good people. On a better note, I have several friends that have diabetes and with a watchful eye they lead better lives than me…hey that isn’t fair…damn them!
I will promise when you hit the playa not to tempt you with large amounts of bacon and booze…Just for you I am picking up tofu bacon and near beer. See you in the dust!
