Yeah I think now after reading this that it may be still early days thw blood test after one month was great. The enzymes or something that processes the alcohol had to be equal or less than 13 (whatever that is) and mine was 309 to start with and after one month 154 so it halved the whatever it's called gp was happy it was now good enough to give me Naltrexone (it affects the liver if unhealthy)
I put all my trust in my gp and the clinic's gp.
Next week new blood test then results.
Next month ultrasound of my hand first they thought it was Duyprutans contraction ( scar tissue on the tendon of my left ringfinger. It's common in alcoholucs with germanic background =me im Dutch) but now the gp thinks it's fibrosis (after seeing the ultrasound) which she says is strange so I'm getting another ultrasound on my hand cos the lump has doubled in size and is now slightly obstructing movement.
Alcohol ***** your body! It's nasty stuff!
It makes us sick and ill and gives us weird unexplainable lumps in our body
Im not religious but thank you God for freeing me of this nasty stuff and giving me my life back better than ever before
