Brief Answer:
Alcohol has caused chronic liver injury

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

When we take any medicine or alcohol, it is an extra load for the liver to metabolize. I would consider no amount of alcohol safe for you. It has already caused chronic liver injury and is manifesting with raised Gamma glutamate (GGT) level. It is an important warning sign. If you ignore that, a more serious condition may ensue. I would suggest you to give up drinking altogether. Whether you can do that is actually a matter of will and nothing else.
