Hi Nancy,
During chemo and herceptin I drank no alcohol. When treatment was over I did and do drink an occasional "Miller" (I don't like wine) beer and enjoy it completely. In the summer time I will have a few a week and during the winter time not that much.
I understand that "guilt" mentality, as I think we all go through it from time to time, but I think that we have to enjoy this life we're given also. If that means sweet treats - a little alcohol or whatever - I say go for it.
Moderation is the key with everything.
Cheers back at ya sister.....
Mary Jo
