Is 3 years of heavy drinking long enough for a person to get cirrhosis? also if the person was healthy before and no medical problems.

Seek help...: Heavy alcohol use is hard on the body and certainly affects the liver. Although cirrhosis is unlikely after just 3 years, that does not mean that you are not at risk for alcoholic hepatitis or causing damage to your body. Cirrhosis is the final stages of alcoholic liver disease. Get help now to change your life and you can make liver disease from alcohol something you don't have to worry about.
