Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
I have gone through the reports you have mentioned.
Since you are heavy alcoholic, your all reports are suggestive of alcoholic hepatitis.
So quit alcohol as soon as possible.
Avoid oily and fatty food.
Eat high protein diet like pulses, vegetables and fruits.
Start protein powder. Take more glucose orally.
Avoid hepatotoxic drugs (painkillers, muscle relaxant and anti inflammatory).
Start liver supportive drugs like Liv52, Liv safe etc.
Get done repeat LFT after 1 month and see for decreasing levels.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
