Is It Safe To Consume Alcohol After A Triple Bypass Surgery?

I had triple bypass a little less than a month ago. I am currently walking between 2 and 4 miles a day, have discontinued prescribed pain killers and have been following a regimen of heart healthy eating habits. I am not on Coumadin, not sure of the spelling there. I take a statin an blood pressure med and aspirin. My question is, is it safe for me to have alcohol at this point?
