Likely yes: It is likely that your liver will repair itself, unless there is fibrosis. If you quit drinking permanently and adopt healthy habits, you should have a normal life span. Your doctor can ascertain if there is irreversible damage in the form of fibrosis. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs.
