Will Consuming Alcohol Have An Effect In Blood Test Even After 12hours?
Hello, I have a 12 hour fast before a blood test tomorrow at 9 AM. I had a beer at lunch today (around 2PM) and am wondering if I should cancel my appointment. I was told I could smoke, drink black coffee and tea, take my medication, and drink water right before my test if that helps.

Hi,
There will not be any effect after having beer at lunch time and getting blood test done the next day morning. You have not detailed about the blood test so it is more likely to be a routine test. Please do not worry for it.
