Hi there,
Thanks for using HCM.
As per your CT scan report, you are having fatty liver disease.
This could be probably be due to the diabetes you suffer from. Other causes include alcohol intake (which you never consume), high cholesterol and obesity.
Control of blood glucose would help to reverse it.
You need to reduce weight if you are obese and check your cholesterol levels.
Also get a liver function test done to see if it is just a simple fatty liver or fatty liver with inflammation.

I hope that answers your query.
Regards.
