PLEASE PUT YOUR AFDs IN A BOLD RED FONT and good luck! (and if I've made any mistakes, don't be shy, please let me know!)
EVERYONE WELCOMEWhat do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.0 -

I'd avoid it until you've been alcohol free for about at least a month!
Abnormal test results can affect things like Insurance on Mortgages and Life Policies, as they show up on the reports that the companies request from your GP.
Also, what good will it do? If you know you are drinking too much and think it might be affecting your liver, then they will only tell you to stop drinking.
Sorry if I sound negative, I work in the industry.......and I drink too much!!! I would never voluntarily have ANY tests!!!Debt Free Date: November 20170
