Welcome at HCM
I have gone through your query and being your doctor I completely understand your health concerns.
In my opinion you should completely stop drinking alcohol. Do regular exercise and try to decrease the carbohydrate intake too. Within six months you will see marked improvement..
Hope your query is adequately answered.
