I am wondering if a "simple" fatty liver can cause liver enlargement and ascites? I am currently awaiting the results of a CT scan to see why my liver is enlarged (shown by ultrasound). I have the balloon like feeling in my right upper abdomen and I also look and feel like I am about 3 months pregnant (I am NOT). Of course, I would like to think that this is something simple, like a "fatty liver", so I am wondering if that could indeed by the case? Last time my liver enzymes were checked out, they were normal, but that has been quite a few weeks. Also, if I were having a reaction to cholesterol medicine (Lescol), could it cause these symptoms?
