Q What should I prepare before my consultation?
A Bring your recent health checkup results (abdominal ultrasound, liver enzymes, cholesterol, blood sugar), a list of current medications and supplements, and notes on your usual diet, alcohol, and exercise habits. This makes the consultation faster and more accurate.
Detailed Answer
The most helpful material is your recent health checkup report. Having the degree of fatty liver from the abdominal ultrasound, liver enzyme values such as AST, ALT, and GGT, and readings for total cholesterol, triglycerides, blood sugar, and HbA1c all in one place lets us grasp accompanying metabolic issues at a glance. A brief note on your daily meals, drinking frequency, and exercise routine is also very helpful.
Korean Medicine Perspective
These materials are clues to trace where your fatty liver originated. The more prepared you are, the more precise a treatment direction we can establish at the very first appointment.
