One of the more common causes of NASH is metabolic syndrome. How are your glucose, cholesterol, and triglyceride numbers?
Hi madisongrrl,

HbA1c is 44 mmol/mol, down greatly in 8 weeks.

I do not have my cholesterol or triglyceride numbers for this year, all I was told was that they were in range. Last year

Serum cholesterol 4.1 mmol/L. HDL Ratio 3.7
Serum triglycerides 1.9 mmol/L

Over here, NASH is called stage 2 steatosis, and I have been put in this category because I am symptomatic - pain under ribs (no Gall Bladder, had a tumour)


Dave.

Just phoned Drs.

Cholesterol/HDL ratio 3.8
No Triglycerides test taken.
