SueDenim, I'm a 52 year old woman and also looking forward to retirement.
Listen to your body - I did. Was diagnosed with fatty liver two weeks ago and haven't had a drop since. I have help through medication and counseling. As long as I stay this course, my liver should heal itself and I will live through a long and happy retirement. If I don't, I can look forward to a short and miserable retirement. I know which one I prefer - what about you?
