Hi there ~
I understand your concerns. However it may be best to stay away from alcohol in such a situation. I am also thinking that you will have a chance to do so after you recover from you current condition, although I would advise you to give up drinking altogether. I hope this helps. Please see a doctor for further recommendations. Take care and have a lovely day!
