Well I’ve just come off of the phone after a conversation with my liver specialist who has now told me if I keep off of the booze and cigs and continue to eat healthy and exercise there is no reason why my liver can’t return to normal after the progress in just 3 months to say I’m overwhelmed is an understatement there’s still a long way to go and my liver is still inflamed and very fragile but there is HOPE XX

That's fab news 😀

Doing ok now cheers. I went into hospital 2 weeks ago as had A.F HR 186bpm and averaged 140-150 for 5 days till went back to sinas rhythm. Tests showed fatty diposits on liver and ALT reading of 169 due to drinking 60-70 units alcohol a week. Told to cut drinking down and eat healthier. So wake up call to sort myself out and only have unhealthy things in moderation.

I’d cut the drinking out completely if I were you sounds like you’ve got a second chance I didn’t heed the warnings and carried on drinking not my best idea

in reply toFoxdud

Have only had 3 pints since I came home on 12th July but yeah don't want to go back drinking as before. Was surprising how the units added up seeing mates/family at weekends for a drink and a few cans after work during the week watching TV at night.

I tried the cutting down but eventually it started to rise and before I knew it I was back drinking the same again and then ended up in hospital and now I can’t drink so my advice is leave it alone as long as you can (if you can’t stop for good)let your liver heal itself good luck and keep me posted 👍🏻
