Hi all, I've been reading through the forum and have seen mixed opinions on abstinence prior to the HRO Medical.
I was convicted 5 years ago and am now reapply for my license after at 3 year ban. I'm not a heavy drinker (I.e daily) however I do enjoy a social with my friends on a Friday evening. Currently I have abstained for two weeks and expect my medical to go ahead roughly four weeks from now. Of course, I plan on abstaining until the medical is over; my concern is a potential fail based mostly on the fact that I have no idea what my CDT level could be.
That being said I had a LFT in the middle of last month and my results came back 'all ok' likewise with a full blood count etc.
Am I working myself up for nothing? Should I be ok providing I abstain until the medical?
*im currently drink 3ltrs water a day, take green tea extract, multivitamins (+ iron), garlic and intend on buy some milk thistle this week. However my Friday binges could sometimes hit around 10 pints of (3.8/4% ABV) beer/lager; I DO NOT drink at all any other day of the week!
Any help or advice here is massively appreciated!
