Welcome to healthcaremagic.com. That level is high, how much have you drunk and for how long. I would advise against drinking, I know this is not what you want to hear, but remember that you can go into acute fullminant liver failure very easily as your liver is now compromised. I would also watch what medications you take at the moment. I hope this helps. Good luck
