Just a quick note to say hi! I can relate. I am also no bum, but I love my wine after work. I have been told recently that I have a fatty liver, and now have to stop drinking. I am here trying to find out if things will be alright if I cut my intake in half instead of giving it up altogether. Life stinks enough WITH my wine. sigh..... Good luck to us both!
I don't know how long it will take the pain to stop, but I am betting a while. There are suggestions on things you can do to help your liver regenerate that may aid in feeling better sooner. Watch Dr. Palmer's Video at Liver Foundation.org. It is called Diet and Exercise. She makes recommendations on supplements that maybe helpfu..
