Hmmmm. I guess the doctor knows your history with alcohol, and feels a little is no big deal with meds. You must have a high toleration for beer.
Think we have addressed this issue before. It is trial and error now. If two beers make you feel relaxed, then the doctor is on the right track.
My only question is: Can you stick with two??? You sound fearful, and it is understandable: the usual advice is not to mix drugs with alcohol. If your doctor and your pharmacist have given you the OK, then whatever we say may only increase your anxiety.
Hypochondrias (sp?) is a medical condition and a real bear to conquer. Good for you for tackling it. Group therapy helped a friend of mine: therapist was confrontational so she couldn't hide from us...LOL. Take it easy. Post anytime.
In my opinion, I really don't think it's a good idea to drink with these meds. You need to find other things you enjoy doing that does not involve alcohol. Remar
