Non Alchoholic Fatty Liver Sudden Onset

Anyone else develope fatty liver while on savella? 2012 diagnosed with CFIDS and FIBROMYALGIA WITH NEUROLOGICAL SYMPTOMS. Thats a mouthful but my neurologist said that cfids/fm with neurological symptoms is very different than cfids/fm alone. I certainly am clueless..lol. I've tried all the common fibro drugs to no avail. Savella was hard to adapt to for about a month then there was light, so to speak. Not enough help though if it damages my kidneys or liver is my thought. I also take Nuvigil intermittently which is like manna from heaven when i have to think clearly for checkbook balancing and Bill paying. So that's my basics. I am tall and slender, not big on 3 meals a day for sure. But quickly my torso was gaining weight. From 135 lbs to 160. Bloodwork was different than ever b4. Liver high. Had CT scan with oral and IV dye. Fatty liver. Shocked!! I watch what i eat for high cholesterol, which also is new. I had swapped sugar to raw honey,primarily ate tuna in water out of can, wild rice, and a Greek yogurt at nite with ground flaxseed and a big plate of fresh baby spinach ...raw. If anyone has experienced liver issues i would certainly like to know cause I'm at a loss.

So far, as listed by the FDA, this has not been reported with Savella.

Its typical side effects usually include nausea, dizziness, hot flushes, insomnia, stress and irritability.

It's very hard to pinpoint any particular cause for this condition, so you may never really know what has caused it.

Does anyone else have any ideas?
