For what it's worth… I know the feeling. I don't know how your relationship is with your doc, but I have told mine about the same issues. He realizes we still are social beings and has created a med schedule, really just a decrease, if I choose to go out and have a drink with friends on occasion. He tells me I can have one early on and try to just drink it a bit slowly and if I get a second I must 'nurse" it all night. It's not the greatest deal but at least now I know how to mix it safely with meds and thanks to the meds want to less frequently anyways.
Oh, I have also found a renewed interest in 'micro brewed' root beer. I think I am starting to like it better most micro beers...lol I don't really do spirits, just good beer, but I think he mentioned that only beer and wine were ok with him while on my meds.
Hope this helps, ~Tony
