How Can Alcohol Consumption Affect Blood Test Result?

I drank 3 alcoholic drinks on Friday night, and about 4 on Saturday night. I have a blood test tomorrow, and I am worried that this will cause an increase in GGT or other liver enzymes. Am I worrying too much?I am healthy, eat well, and I am active. I normally drink 5-8 drinks per week.

In my opinion I dont think you will get high GGT report. If you are symptomatic than you can have high report. So no need to worry much.
