Blood Alcohol Levels Post Surgery?

[zackly 13]

I had gastric bypass last August. I've only drank alcohol a few times since then. I've never been a big drinker. As many have stated I feel drunk after a drink or two. I'm wondering if I would be over the legal limit for driving after having consumed so little booze? Don't worry, I have a designated driver.

I have asked my surgeon this question and was told yes, you would likely be over the legal limit before you even notice the buzz!

Most states you can still get a DUI without being over the "legal limit" If you are driving impaired or on drugs.
