“Hepatic function blood test?”
I took a hepatic function blood test. I did drink heavily the two days prior, could those cause these elevated levels? Are the elevated levels just a slight overage or should I be concerned?

Heavy drinking preceding a hepatic panel test could certainly cause abnormal levels. Best thing is to repeated in the absence of drinking. Also, the degree of abnormality is important. Perhaps there’s more than just alcohol playing a role in this abnormality. It is difficult to assess without knowing all your specifics, however, I would say that really no amount of alcohol is good for you and excessive is definitely detrimental.
