Hi. Welcome to Chat Doctor. Grade 2 fatty liver with hepatomegaly in a obese patient usually require treatment along with lifestyle modification. So I would advise,1. Get Fasting lipid profile which checks amount of cholesterol in body. If high start cholesterol lowering Chat Doctor. 2. Reduce obesity by taking low calorie diet and regular exercise. If BMI>35 she definitely requires medical intervention to reduce obesity.3.Lifestyle modification like avoiding alcohol/smoking, low calorie diet and diet devoid of cholesterol.4. Yearly once ultrasound scan of liver to look for progression.
