Hi This post isn’t about me (a recovering alcoholic, sober 3.5yrs!) but my completely normal, low level of alcohol intake, partner! He had some bloods run as part of a routine check up for his age (46) and they’ve had him back in for full LFTs / scan next week as his ALP was 139.. When I say normal

Looking for studies on the subject, I was surprised to learn of a possible connection with restless leg syndrome too, and thought those with this affliction might want to read this paper
