Glass of Wine

I know I am over reacting, but I went out to dinner last night to celebrate my last riba pill and the end of treatment and had one glass of wine over the course of dinner. Do you think this will impact treatment success?   At this point I am so worried it didn't work it is all that is on my mind.  mar

Did you know that for women, 2 drinks p/day for 10 yrs. is enough to cause cirrhosis? Just because shastri2000 is doing OK, with doing a "few" has nothing to do with anyone else.
I have an Idea, ask your Dr.

My advice is not to 'sweat it." What's done is done...and I have not heard of anyone relapsing due to 'one' glass of wine. Stay away from it at least until you get a 3 mo.SVR.  Look at shastri2003 (today's) post. He is doing alright w/ a few. Again, that's not ok for many of us...me in particular. I have filled 'my quota.' for this lifetime.
All the best...all the way to SVR!

I think even after SVR, and how much reversal of damage to our livers or lack thereof....alcohol is very damaging. Proceed with Caution.

Didn't help. The question is why have wine anyway. No more alcohol. Why undo all the stuff you had to indur.
