Finally got the numbers back from the doc. After being back on and sticking with Atkins, the numbers are impressive.....

--------------Last year-----------This year

Weight ---------268------------------222

Cholesterol------326------------------158

HDL Chol---------39-------------------46

Trig-------------378-------------------98

Bad news is I got the results back for my liver ultrasound, and it is showing an "enlarged liver", but was otherwise "unremarkable". No mention of fatty infiltration, or any other problems noted. My liver function tests are all fine as well.

So, I've got something bad going on with the liver, and it doesn't look to be fatty liver as the doc suspected. Looks like I'm not crazy after all, and the symptoms were in fact real. So now I have to make an appointment next week with the specialist, and go from there. Hopefully I won't be told to go off Atkins, because I know the weight gain that awaits me if I do......
