<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.In the past couple of years my husband has experienced pleural thickening, then pleural effusion with a partially collapsed lung. He has seen two pulmonologists and they have only taken regular cat scans. He now has a fatty liver with elevated GGT 124. He is not overweight and not a drinker. I am concerned that something more is going on now that he has liver problems also. Any suggestions?  <response>: Hello,1 Fatty liver and pleural thickening are not associated to each other.2 He needs liver evaluation, grade of fatty liver for fatty liver and this require USG abdomenCt scan abdomen. A follow-up evaluation is mandatory to check progression or regression in fatty liver.3 He need base-line lipid profile test and must be done every 6 months even if he is not overweight and USG abdomen every 3-months.4 He should follow instructions for pleural thickening as given by pulmonologist.
