Thank you for sharing you experience...I have decided that I don't want to take the risk of transfer addiction.
I am not going to even take a sip now that I have read all of the posts!
Thank you very much for your post. You and all of the others who have posted have made it very clear to me that alcohol isn't a risk I can take now that I am post op.
Thanks for your post. I am not going to take the transfer addiction risk!
I think with all of the posts and insights, I better stay away from any wine. Transfer addiction is the last thing I need and not worth the risk.
I am so sorry to hear that. I posted a few minutes ago that alcoholism runs in my family. So far I have not had an issue but the fact that I posted and asked about it might just be a red flag. Thanks for your post and for the link.
Quitting alcohol might just be what I will do! Enjoy your vacation!
Alcoholism runs in my family too so I am careful to not drink often but I like to have an occasional glass of wine. Transfer addiction scares me.
All I can say is that knee replacement is the best thing that you can do for yourself. I've been avoiding this surgery for a while and tried literally everything to stop the pain. The knee brace has helped me, but not for too long. I guess it also depends a lot on how bad your knee hurts. I know that there are many people who feel very comfortable wearing a knee brace and don't need surgery. But if your doctor recommends you to be operated on, then try to find a good surgeon. Take care and stay healthy!
thanks sweet potato for your nice words. yea people are just jealous. There are alot of mean people where i live so i just try & stay away from them. i don't need to justify what i eat or my choices in life such as having wt loss surgery and by the way it was the best decision of my life. sure i have to watch what i eat but its my choice. when my asst landlord ask me twice if i wanted a doughnut & i said "no thank you" both times & she said but one bite will not hurt you i said to her "but what if i offered you a bottle of Jack Daniels or some beer? same idea and she shut up. again thanks!
