NAFLD and Water retention https://www.carenity.us/forum/nonalcoholic-fatty-liver-disease-and-nash/symptoms-and-complications-of-nonalcoholic-fatty-liver-disease/nafld-and-water-retention-537@jpsmed I responded to your other question. As far as getting it removed? Do you mean the fluid build up? I am not sure about surgical options, but try to monitor it with limiting salt, diuretics and speak to your doctor.
Is it causing you abdominal pain?
I get swelling in my abdomen . I currently take two differnet types of Lasik. One helps remove fluid while protecting my potassium level. I recently had an ultrasound of the abdomen. I was told that it would be important to find out what is causing the fluid build-up . One cause can be liver issues. No significant fluid was found but will be rechecked in 6 months. My bigest suggestion would be to find out what is causing the fluid build up . Is it actually fluid buildup or something else. The doctor would determine if fluid needs to be removed based on the cause. It can be removed by sticking a needle through the abdomen and abstracting .
Thought some of you members may find this discussion topic interesting and may have some advice or experiences that you could share. Hope you do not mind me tagging you.
