You can develop fatty liver disease in a few days with heavy drinking. This is the first stage of ARLD[CIRRHOSIS] which occurs over years of alcohol abuse. This is not reversible and eventually can kill you. Stop drinking now to help prolong your life. Look for signs of loss of appetite, fatigue, and jaundice as well as other signs. Go for treatment and try AA.
