Can Alcohol Be Consumed 22 Months After Kidney- Pancreas Transplant And If Yes, How Much Of It?
I received a Kidney- Pancreas transplant about 22 months ago. I have been very careful and have followed the necessary guidelines to stay healthy and want to know if it is okay to drink 1-2 gales in wine 4-5 times a week, or if I need to stay away from alcohol?
