Yes, I still have an occasional beer or three - no more than 3 honest. When I was on Lyrica I noticed the next day I would really feel like crap if I had the 3rd beer. Now that I'm back on Gralise(nuerotin) that the rare occasions I have the 3rd beer I'm OK in the next day. The only day I have a beer is Friday so I really don't over do it. Also I take the last medications before I go to sleep which is normally an hour or so after my last drink, I imagine that helps a little.

I have not had anything stronger than beer in over a year, not from the nueropathy but from Xarelto and instructions from my cardiologist.
