Does Anyone Continue To Drink Alcohol With COPD? I Have A Couple Screw Drivers Every Evening Prior To Dinner Which Helps Me Enjoy My Dinne
I have 1 glass of wine every 6 or 8 days till the bottle's gone. Bottle usually lasts a month. Been reading red wine is better for us than white or rose. But I am not on 02.

Hey David. I'm not going to beat up on you for relaxing with a couple sips on a Screwdriver, a Sidecar or a Cosmopolitan. đšI had to give mine up when I stopped smoking because the two were like kissing cousins. I couldn't seem to enjoy one with out the other! đ

Apart from many other things going on in the body with COPD added on, I barely have time to keep the car in the Strait lane anymore. Besides, with a history of family indulgence, it's just not worth IT. Too many things can go wrong - too Fast!

Generally alcohol can reduce your 02 intake a bit, so you may wish to keep good track of your 02 sats and increase the 02 if they tend to go down.
