Okay to drink?
I've been having a craving for the taste of beer for a couple weeks now. I understand that non-alcoholic beer actually has a small percentage of alcohol in it (go figure), but I was wondering if a 6 pack of Miller Sharp's would do me any harm? Thanks in advance, Nick PS, Even a wine cooler would do me justice. Please keep in mind, I was an avid drinker before the injury. It took a lot out of me to quit drinking after and I'm trying to avoid a relapse. Please do not judge me.

What happened: I was randomly assaulted from behind in June of 2011. I was knocked unconscious for an unknown amount of time (less than 30 minutes) and have no memory of the event. CT scan showed contusion and hematoma of the left frontal lobe. I spent 3 days in the hospital. Diagnosed with Post-Concussion Syndrome in September 2011. Currently have Medicaid, Medicare and SSI. Current symptoms: Brain fog, mild memory issues, problems with spontaneity, occasional spacing out, word finding difficulties, tinnitus in right ear and some other things that I can't explain. Life after the brain injury: 4 years after the injury, I'm engaged to my beautiful girlfriend of 5 years, I'm the CEO of my own business, Notorious Labs, I've taught myself how to program complex games and apps which is a feat I never thought I'd accomplish and now live a semi-normal life with very mild PCS symptoms. Slowly but surely regaining my life back. |
