Does The Absence Of My Spleen Affect Blood Alcohol Levels To Show As High?

Hello I had a car accident recently. I am 52 & lost my spleen at 19. When I was taken to the hospital they said my blood alcohol level was high & was charged with DUI. Though it had been hours since I had drank alcohol. Does the absence of my spleen affect these levels
