Also, I haven't touched alcohol in a couple of months. It's really tough, especially when i'm at social events when everyone else is drinking. Exactly how bad is alcohol to your nerves and how does it affect healing? Will drinking once a week be a bad idea? I used to drink to get drunk every weekend. For the first month of my symptoms I was drinking once a week. It was a nice stress reliever and a nice escape from reality so I didn't worry so much about my symptoms.

If you search here using these words you will read some of the most heart-wrenching posts. To me it's about inflammation. Sugar is inflammation, alcohol is sugar. If you need to know I would advise starting with a meal low in carbs then drink to a point where you can feel a buzz starting then quit. Maybe you won't have to pay the fiddler. Any carbs consumed after the drinking will muddy the waters. I propose this scenario in the spirit of this is what I would do if I had to find out. Good Luck, Ken in Texas.
