Re: Alcohol and breast cancer risk
I love to have a glass or two of wine. I usually have two glasses of wine during the weekend. I am also estrogen positive and get a little freaked out when I read the studies about increased risk with alcohol. Well I have to tell you ladies I want to enjoy a glass of wine now and then. When i was first diagnosed I was pretty scared, what to eat, what not to eat, not to drink, no sugar, etc. etc. My oncologist said everything in moderation. I want to enjoy my dinner's out with a glass of wine and I dont want to be afraid anymore. I want to have fun and carry on with life. Cheers xo
