I do not have metastatic disease and during chemo treatment, I did not drink alcohol at all because I felt my liver was under enough with chemo. Now, however, although still on Herceptin, I do imbibe - usually a couple of glasses of wine on the weekend. If we go out, I will have a Cosmo or martini and then wine. I usually do not drink during the week at all (unless we are on vacation) because I workout or walk or jog in the evening and get too tired if I have a drink (then won't do it).
There is a link between alcohol and bc but, I don't think its bad to have a couple of pops on the weekend or even a drink every night. We still have to live and if you are (for the most part) eating right and exercising, what's the harm.
Just my 2 cents while I am on vacation (ummm.... oh bartender!!). (We are out and about college shopping for daughter #2 this week. Our "real" vacation is to St. Kitts in February).
Regards
Becky
