Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns
I went through your details. What may seem like just a drink or two most evenings can do a lot of harm to your body, inside and out. The possible effects are: Cancer of the throat, oesophagus or larynx, Breast cancer in women, a stroke, heart disease or an irregular heartbeat, which can lead to a heart attack, high blood pressure, liver disease such as cirrhosis and liver cancer etc. Psychological problems such as depression and anxiety are also possible. Therefore, motivate your wife to quit alcohol. Please consult a psychologist / psychiatrist for de-addiction therapy.
