I have not just Asperger’s Syndrome to deal with but I have a fatty liver too. It definitely was not due to alcoholism. It was due to consumption of a pharmaceutical drug made by Novartis called Tegretol 200. All pharmaceutical drugs on the market can have its benefits but has side effects as well. I did give up alcohol due to taking a combination of pharmaceutical drugs daily. I was not an addict of alcohol. I can’t have too much burgers with fries. I can’t consume too much ice cream. I can’t consume too many of these fizzy drinks. I can’t consume too much chocolate. I can’t consume too many cakes. Their the foods I most love eating. I can consume some in moderation. My General Practioner has asked me to lose weight. Not easy with consumption of pharmaceutical drugs. I do have a gym membership. I do go regularly as I can. I do regularly walk as much as possible. The main thing is that I am aware that I have Asperger’s & the fatty liver. It must seem bad news. It can be good news in the long run having the awareness in the first place.

    The side effects of pharmaceuticals can be a total bummer! Experiencing the same thing. But you are right, good to be aware of it and do as much as you can.
