Hello, raised amylase and lipase suggests inflammation of your pancreas. The reason seems to be alcohol.if you have high amylase and lipase then you should notvdrink alcohol at all. I would suggest you consult a Castro enter I locust and a psychiatrist who would help you with your pancreatitis and alcohol problem
