What's the consensus with alchohol post oral cancer? I've never been a heavy drinker but do like a cold beer in summer. One of my doctors (the maxiofacial surgeon) said to stay right away from it in future but another said it was fine in moderation. Keen to hear your thoughts and experiences with this issue...thanks smile
