do i have hepatitis
i press on my liver, and it doesnt seem to hurt. last week i ate a great deal of rich foods. i also drank alittle more then usual. it started hurting about last friday...do you guys think it could be my liver. i went to the doctor, and they said that jaundice, or extreme symptoms usually occur when you get hepatitis. i had a one time unprotected sex...and the doc said it was too low, of a risk that it couldnt have been hepatitis b, and that maybe it was my gall bladder. need help..goin in for an ultrasound pretty soon. any suggestions?

Just read your situation and I was wondering...have you ever been diagnosed for metabolic syndrome (Syndrome X)? I'm asking because I was and I too have gout at a young age (31) along with upper abdominal region discomforts (fatty liver diagnosis).
Individuals with Syndrome X usually have high blood pressure/low HDL/high triglycerides/high uric acid (gout)/overweight w/ large waist circumference (ie. gut)/high glucose levels. With Syndrome X comes a greater chance at having fatty liver.
Anyways, not a diagnosis for you but just something that you may want to look into for your gout/abdominal aches.
Hope you feel better!
