Brief Answer:
Alcohol Dependence
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I checked your report.
You do not have to recheck the liver enzymes again. You are dependent on alcohol. I am glad that you had taken the decision to quit. I am afraid you may not be able to do it completely though. You may have tried to quit earlier too. I suggest you a Alcohol Deaddiction therapy which includes CBT (Cognitive Behavioural therapy) treating the withdrawal symptoms because of sudden quitting alcohol and some medications as well.
There is no single drug that can make you independent of alcohol. Though there are certain medication which can partially help but they should be part of your entire quit program plan. So you should actually take the Alcohol Deaddiction plan which is given by De addiction centres in your city. It needs a Psychotherapist, COunsellor, Nutritionist and Doctor as well. Along with these I suggest you to join Alcohol Anonymous group which your De addiction centre can help you find.
Be careful about Alcohol withdrawal symptoms which may sink you. Once you stop drinking your liver enzymes will return to near normal within 3 to 4 months. Hope I am clear.
All the best.
