There will come a time where every little thing you can do to help matters and every little thing you do that hurts matters, but it's a trade-off. I sometimes indulge myself in little joys, knowing that they are not physically good for me -- but are good for me spiritually.
No, alcohol is not good for you, but taking little joys where you can find them is.
I average 2 glasses of wine a night. My neuro has okayed with my meds. I love wine. PD has forced me to give up some of the things I’ve enjoyed in the past, like running and biking and vigorous hiking. I will not let it take my wine. Enjoying all of life’s pleasures that I can. Having said this, I’d check with your doctor as well.
My PD husband has a glass of wine when he feels panicky and he enjoys it with no physical problems.
I like wine tasting; started seriously back around 1976 by going to school and learning all there is lo learn about wine. I belong to several wine tasting clubs. Was Dx with PD about 5 years ago, one of my symtoms was declining tolerance to alcohol. My tolerance has drop down to 1 - 2 cups of wine for diner. I can not and will NOT stop tasting wine. The good part is that now I can afford to taste "old" and "expensive" wines.
My Doctor said its ok in moderation but i find myself drinking less a dozen big bottles goes long way these days
