I am 46, male,have been drinking heavily for the last 15 years. When I stop drinking my LFT readings get back to normal within 2 weeks time. But in recent times it takes more than three weeks to get to normal. Besides once after coming to normal within 3 weeks, bilirubin went upto 1.2 form 0.6 in one weeks time without cosuming alcohol. Now i drink only for a brief period of one week in two months time. But during the drinking period usually when I am on tour, I drink heavily. The problem now I am facing is itching
all over the body, and looking as if I had lost a lot of weight, even though I have lost only about 5 pounts, and arms and legs are getting thinner. I am diabetic
used to be in 20s previously when I absain from alcohol, but now they are in the 30s, still normal. any non invasive test to confirm any problem with the liver. I also have a family history of Cirrhosis.
