Suggest Treatment For High GGT And ALP Levels

Iam 48, weighing 105 kilos and stands 6'2" tall.

I have been drinking a bit much over the last ten years or so but always been fully functional.

I received a liver test with GGT of 420 and ALP of 165 last week. I stooped drinking immediately, which does not bother me. I have not seen a doctor yet. Anything besides stop drinking i should do?
