Brief Answer:
Seems to be alcohol related rise.

Detailed Answer:
Hi, this rise seems to be alcohol related. You would require to stick to "No Alcohol" regimen and reduce your weight, reduce fat in diet and if required your doctor may prescribe you Ursedeoxycolic Acid for the same. Make sure that you don't take any pain killers without your doctor's advise.
In case you have fatty liver in Ultrasound with past history of Jaundice twice, i would also recommend you to get tested for Hepatitis B and C.
If the reports come out to be normal, just follow as discussed annd your GGT levels would settle in a few months.
If you have any further query, please ask me.
