Hi i can understand your concern...

Noted you have fatty liver in scanning report...
Because of high cholesterol level you are developing fatty liver that is steatosis condition in which fat accumulate in liver hepatocytes..

Along with drug for high cholesterol you have to modify your life style for improvement...

Avoid alcohol.
fruits more...
Grenn leafy veg taken more...
Avoid bad fat food like pizza, junk foods, meat, cheese etc...
Regular one hour exercise done....
Use very less oil in diet and use only sunflower like good oil...

In your dinner and lunch include carrot, spinach, tomato containing salad more...
youghurt good for health.....

You will be alright with time...
Dont worry and follow above advise.....
