My doctor advises me not to drink any alcohol, but did not say no to cannabis as a recreacional thing. Not that I will= become a chronic user…i won’t, but to be able to know you can do a half a gummy or a beverage if you are going to a party is kind of nice. Again, anything in moderations is probably fine.

Anybody want to share their thoughts?

I have switched to de-alcoholized beer and quiet like it;

There are quite a few good NA beers out there now. Sam Adam's, Athletic are both very real beer in taste and feel. Also, Zero makes a good NA Tequila when I feel like going through the ritual of making a cocktail. Monday's Gin is not bad either as long as you use tonic and lime. As for the occasional gummy - I am with you. It may not be great for me, but I doubt there are dire effects. I have to be able to have those experiences once in a while. I am judicious about it though. Not telling others what to do, however. I think a lot depends on severity. My numbers are pretty good as is my general health.

I also now drink de-alcoholized beer and drink 1 mixed glass of wine for dinner, half & half. 1 half de-alcoholized wine & 1 half alcoholized wine and it is not bad at all. So over all I take 3 1/2 glass of wine a week and my hepatologist is ok with that 😁

in lieu of any prescription drugs for pain, etc. my hepatologist actually suggested cannabis edibles. I still don’t but I do use 50-50 THC/CBD cream for joint and muscle pain. I would not assume though without FIRST speaking to your doctor.

I could not bring the healing salve across the border as it contains THC but yes, i find it really does help.
