Can someone look at these ultrasound results?


I had my gallbladder out in 1996 and a year later all my current health issues started. Currently I am having liver discomfort, stomach bloating and gassy, reflux, intolerance to most foods (eating gluten, sugar, dairy and grain free. I have lost 50 lbs. in three months, horrible digestive issues, 24/7 anxiety, severe adrenal fatigue, muscle and joint pain, leg spasms every night, etc.

When this started I met with a gastroenterologist who originally wanted to do a CT scan of my abdomen but could not get approval from my insurance company, so I asked to have an ultrasound. Nearly 6 weeks went by after the ultrasound and despite several unreturned calls to my doctor about the results of my test, I finally got my results - not because my doctor bothered to send them to me, but because I actually had to request the results from the hospital directly. I am glad I did and pissed at him for not even letting me know. For the record, my ALT, AST and bilirubin are normal, but I had a positive AFP test early last year. He blew off the AFP test, which was done by another doctor, saying that they never use those tests anymore, but judging by the ultrasound report, I am a bit concerned. I had my hormone doctor rerun the AFP a month ago, from a different lab and it still came back positive. I called his office today to enquire why they never let me knowmthe results, and what further steps we need to take. She called me back after talking to the doctor and he said my results were normal. Seriously?! Growths on organs are not normal. Could someone please look at the resultd and see if what I am interpreting is correct? Even the radiologist indicated further testing should be done. I looked up both the liver and kidney findings and they can be serious. Thoughts? Thanks.

Results:

The liver demonstrates a mildly heterogeneous attenuating echo texture, related likely to mild fatty change, spanning 16.5 cm in long-axis dimension. Incidental 7x6 mm hyperechoic left renal lesion within the cortex of the mid left kidney, possibly representing an angiomyolipoma.
