What Could Cause Upper GI Bleed?

I hospitalized this past week for an upper GI bleed. I had an upper GI bleed on Monday and they also cauterized the popped blood vessel that same day. The doctor said nothing to me about not drinking alcohol. To play it safe, would it be OK to drink again, or am I supposed to wait a certain amount of time?

Thanks doc!
