I Drank Alcohol Few Days Before Liver Function Test. Should I Be Worried?

default
Posted on Fri, 12 Apr 2013
Question: I am due for a liver check soon that will basically determine if I can stay at my job or not. I am not supposed to drink, but almost 2weeks before (not quite) I got drunk, and a few days later had 3 beers. I am wondering if my GGT, ALT, AST levels will be high since I have been on a very good diet and abstinant since then. Basically less than 2weeks of abstinence before test.
