I'll be able to drink wine again tonight after FIFTEEN FREAKING DAYS!!

YAY!

Now that the Metronidazole is out of my system.

I could have had wine, but then there might have been the projectile vomiting afterward.

And I really didn't fancy that.

I hope the diverticulitis doesn't come back. It shouldn't with the amount of water I'm drinking and the fiber I'm consuming.

1. Obviously, with my heart problems, excessive alcohol consumption is out of the question but...

.
.
.
... every time I speak with a healthcare provider, "Do you drink alcohol?" is a question
that pops up every time they take a history on me.
.
"A glass or two of red wine every several weeks" is always my honest answer.
.
And they always nod approvingly. I swear!!! Approvingly. Always.

I like the effect of even small amounts of red wine.
.
I call it "fireplace in a bottle".

2. Mrs GoS's oncologist on wine:

The cardiological benefits of a glass of red wine a day outweigh the oncological risks.
