Alcohol ?

Would anyone who has any experience with drinking alcohol since their surgery e-mail me. I have a couple of questions and think it would be better not to "tell all" on the boards. Thanks. Janie

Hello Janie, I had alcohol since my surgey im almost 2 years out I have had no problems with it. Laurie

You can email me with questions [email protected] I am not a big drinker but I have since surgery........heck I even got the official okay from my surgeon at my one year check to have a few drinks!!! Ask away I will help where I can!!! Jesi

Jane, i am not a big drinker before or afterwards. we were told you just drunker faster and you sober up faster. you can email me at lyndaphs at yahoo dot com or lyndas0677 at msn dot com. Lynda

Thanks for all the replies. My Dr. says no alcohol - ever. BTW, the general consensus it that it doe**** you quicker, goes away faster and hasn't made anyone sick. And yes, we all know it's not a good idea to do this on any regular basis... Janie

I like to go out too.. and have a few.. and if you eat before.. like even an hour before .. it does help. just like before your surgery. if you drink on an empty stomach, it will affect you faster generally. i did a shot once.. wow. felt it RIGHT away, lol of course, it was tequila though! feel free to email me too janie, I will send ya one tomorrow even and tell you what I Think.. ok! Judi ps, I am gonna see if my newer pic is up yet. lol
