Hi, Thanks for using HCM.
As you have mentioned most of your test results are with in normal limit, need not to worry, try to control your acid reflux symptoms. avoid spicy food during night time and take small quantity of food infrequent intervals, avoid tea or coffee. do yoga or meditation to control your mental strain. Liver enlargement is common in weight loss condition(mostly fatty changes). take healthy food, have adequate sleep and do regular exercises.
Hope this helps you
