TaylorR 3 Posted July 3, 2014 So how long did you guys wait until you had a drink with alcohol in it? 4th of July weekend and I am REALLY wanting one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
teemarie1078 165 Posted July 3, 2014 I'm 6 weeks out and plan to have a small drink... Many surgeons have different rules as far as that! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaurieC 7 Posted July 3, 2014 I am 9 weeks and I had my first glass or two of wine yesterday. I had no problems but did get a buzz off two glasses of wine. Be careful and don't drive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
awold0 246 Posted July 3, 2014 So how long did you guys wait until you had a drink with alcohol in it? 4th of July weekend and I am REALLY wanting one. I waited about 6 months. I am almost 1 year out now. I'm trying to not drink due to empty calories but have a few with hubby on special days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jodyjetson 72 Posted July 6, 2014 I'm 7 weeks out of surgery and I had my first glass of wine last night. I enjoyed the taste but didn't get a buzz. That surprised me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
