It depends how long you have been virus-free and the extent of the prior level of fibrosis that you had.  After successful treatment, and over time, your liver can return to like new condition - ready for new abuse.

Personally I would stay away from it.

Hep C is just one of several things that can damage your liver. At stage three, I'd go very, very easy on the alcohol, as zoom1zoom recommended.

you may not carry the virus but liver damage wont go away overnight - alcohol will cause further damage - down the line a drink or 2 here or there might be ok - alcohol is one of the leading causes of cirrhosis
