Anyone know?

My neuro told me I would be fine with "social" drinking, keep it very moderate. I think you will find a lot of folks on this board say any amount of alcohol makes it worse. Whether it just irritates the symptoms or actually makes it progress I don't think anyone knows. To me, logic would say small amounts of alcohol should not cause nerve damage, but I am not doctor.
