Bad blood tests scared me and I need your support
Post Body

Today I saw my doctor, who told me about my last blood test, which was taken about 36 hours after my last alcohol intake. All liver markers (transaminases, Gamma GT, bilirubin) were slightly above normal. Although she tried to reassure me, I felt that she was worried (she talked about cirrhosis, among other things). I have to take another blood test in two weeks to see how it all evolved and to see if it was serious or not (let's go for two weeks of high anxiety, I guess...).

Although this appointment has reinforced my desire to stop drinking, I must admit that the idea of having a possible cirrhosis when I am only 28 years old scares me. I didn't feel like I had a problematic consumption: even if I drank a lot, I didn't drink every day, I had periods of abstinence... I'm not ready to die. I don't want to leave my wife and dog alone.

So I would like to ask you, please, for your support and prayers that I am actually okay and that I'll find the strength within me to never touch this crap again. Thank you in advance
