Hi

Thanks for writing in

Nesidioblastosis is the neoformation of islets of Langerhans from pancreatic duct epithelium

Sporadic persistent hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia is a common feature of nesidioblastosis

Patient education is very vital but is our of the scope of online forum

If there is any discrepancy in diagnosis with two different modalities you should go for a repeat examination at a specialized center

I have seen your lipid profile, you need to see your physician for the same

Regarding Cirrhosis , any fatty liver can end up in to Cirrhosis but I would suggest you get the diagnosis confirmed

Hope this helps
Do write back in case of doubts
Wishing you a healthy life ahead
