How long did it take your numbers go down?

I have been drinking tons of herbal tea, my blood pressure has dropped back into the normal range, overall I am pretty amazed at how fast the body can heal itself after the initial withdrawal.

Everyone is different, but my liver enzyme levels went to normal after 30 days of sobriety.

Have you asked your dr what to expect? That's probably a good place to start.

I'm glad you're working on your recovery.

Even when i hadn't had a drink for a year ( when i gave up AGAIN! )
My liver enzymes where still up. Some damage may not be reversible depending how much you have abused your liver over the years. The only person that can explain it to you properly is your doc.
We are all different :-)
Congrats on your results, I'm happy for you.
Prevention really is better than cure )),xx
