Any statistics or info on Life span after quitting alcohol? Friend is panicking
But now hes wavering, keeps fretting about all the people he knew, including former drinkers who “died young “, even if they
quit
drinking
. He’s very depressed by this, feels “doomed”. He hasn't gone back to drink yet.

Severe Discomfort. Could it be cancer?
As I said before I did
quit
smoking 2 weeks ago and I
quit
eating and
drinking
heavy amounts of caffeine a month ago. Has anyone ever had symptoms like this?

Guilt
I had
quit
drinking
to help ease my anxiety and I was doing really well. I stopped completely for two months and then for a couple of weeks it seemed that I could just have one glass of wine here or there..... Until last night.

Husband Passed Away Last Week
Eight months ago he found out he had this and
quit
drinking
completely. Sadly, though completely sober for 8 months, he hadn't completed alcohol dependency counseling so he got too sick to be put on the waiting list for a transplant here in New York. It was a brutal 8 months.

Safest way to loose weight
I have
quit
drinking
, which is great but I still have to have lose weight (loads, like 100lbs). I thought quitting drinking was hard, but compared to keeping on a diet I find it easy; there's a simple goal with sobriety (don't drink), but a dozen variables with diet (have you had enough fruit?

+ AMA; Slightly elevated ALT
I am rather upset because something is going on with my liver and I can no longer pretend everything is fine; I have no symptoms, my weight is within normal range, and I do not take any medications and I
quit
drinking
a year ago.

Signs of compensating?
He
quit
drinking
immediately, his belly has gone down a lot, he’s not as jaundiced as he was, he’s eating a very low sodium and organic diet (fruit, veggies, a little lean meat, protein smoothies). He feels and looks so much better. Are these positive signs that his liver is compensating?

I hate thinking of titles
His is caused from
drinking
and he
quit
immediately, he’s been sober 74 days today. My question is, is there still time for more improvement possibly? The ascites is gone, jaundice is just barely there, his appetite is fantastic, though he is tired a lot some days.

AFIB - CHEST PAINS
I am 32 years old and had my first AFIB episode around 4 months ago, this was heavily due to lifestyle, smoking,
drinking
and in particular stress. Since then I have
quit
smoking,
drinking
and caffeine so I am taking positive steps in the right direction.

Exercise & cardiomyopathy
I am 58 years old who
quit
smoking before 4 years and stopped
drinking
since May 2018. Life style changes of cutting down salt intake with a fluid restriction of 1 litre/per day was imposed right from day one. A review within a month reduced my LVEF to 36%.

Don’t diet, eat healthy- tips and tricks.
I had been drinking milk all my life like everyone else so I never realized until I
quit
drinking
it. Don’t take companies word-When it comes to food companies, especially meat, dairy and sugar industry, their top priority is making profits, not your long term health.

A Bad Day
I
quit
drinking
a year ago to avoid that after becoming a "social drinker" in 2008 and an alcoholic by 2010...and now I'm hung over on, I suppose, some depressing medications that takes a bit to allow a functioning mind.

Fld, strange symptoms. Like info.
To be honest, I
quit
drinking
by God's grace in 2000. But I picked up a fairly hardcore Vicodin habit. Than after quitting that, gained weight. I'm an old punk rocker lady and regret these choices. My symptoms started w vague stomachaches that I attributed to age.
