Abby, You sound desperate! Alcohol, really? I know, wine is supposed to have effects on the immune system. But the article was sketchy at best and you have to ask yourself what EXACTLY in the wine is good? Is it the alcohol or the grapes? Is it the blood thinning effects? I wouldn't doubt if the study was done by a wine manufacturer.

I can't even sip on alcohol or I'll wake up in the middle of the night choking and unable to breathe well. It's not really worth the risk, at least for me!

Your husband may want to watch you drink instead because he'll have to be alert if he needs to drive you to the ER or dial 911.
