Hi everybody ... just to state that I am *not* an alcoholic !
That's what they all say !!
However I do like the odd tipple to relax me. We all need to relax sometimes don't we? I was drinking San Miguel Lager from Lidl .. cheap and strong and I found it to be very palatable. However I am now trying to reduce my carbs to try and get rid of my fatty mid riff so I've stopped the San Miguel and am now drinking gin (no carbs) with a little orange juice and water. Shame faced I have to say ... I can probably get through a litre a week. My doctor once asked me if I drank alcohol and I said "Yes .... about 3 bottles of wine ....... a week" .... his reply was "a week !!!!!!!! ?" so I don' t really talk about alcohol with doctors if I can help it.
Anybody on the forum have info (scientific ... from surgeons or other medical professionals) as to what effect alcohol has, detrimental or otherwise, on bladder cancer diagnosis, or just what are your experiences with alcohol in your bladder cancer journey?
With apologies to those of you who are tea total. I was tea total for 15 years so know it's a good place to be.
With love xx Kathy.
