Mid July 2024 finished radiotherapy (Thai govt hospital) for throat cancer, tumour gone but throat a bit of a mess. I asked the ENT doc last week as not had a drink for about a year if a beer would be OK now. Absolutely not was the response, a very, very small wine would be OK but not beer. As I keep reading that alcohol is alcohol whatever form it is in I was too surprised to query it.
My throat is still not happy with more than fiddling sips of any liquid. I wasn't thinking of an 8 pint session, just don't like siting in a bar with water or coffee. I have since had a few cans of Heineken 0.0% which went down alright but not everywhere keeps it. Any comments about alcohol in wine ok but not beer.
