I have been reading alot about alcohol and cancer, some studies say not to drink any alcohol at all after a cancer diagnosis and others say moderate intake is fine. I am not a big drinker, a little wine once in awhile but since my surgery I am afraid to have a social drink. My ENT made me laugh when I asked him the question, he said, if I did not have a drink now and then I would get heart disease. Funny! I guess never ask an Irishman if you can have a drink!!
