From the symptoms you have described I would be very concerned because you have a long term history of heavy drinking, the drinking is getting progressively more, you have a family history, and you are having a hard time stopping, and having withdrawl symptoms. Not good signs, not good signs at all.
You are almost a nurse what is the patients diagnosis?
Yes, I know it is progressive which is why I have been growing increasingly concerned. My health check ups have been fine. I have to get a check up with complete blood counts every 6 months for school, and everything so far is fine.
