I was drinking wine about 3 x a week and had lately have been drinking soda and fried foods I m 46 years old and anemic hgb of 9 due to heavy Menes. Currently a pescatarian and now a low calorie diet that doesn t include wine. Just veggies & baked fish. Should I be worried about these levels?

Hi,
Nothing to worry but definitely you need to check for liver status once by getting an ultrasound abdomen (Fatty liver) and HbsAg and anti hcv status too.
The changes are due to your weight ,start working out and reduce your weight with diet modification with low oily and fatty food.
Recheck your LFT after 3 months to see the status of the liver
