NOPE! Every doctor says the same line, "You should cut back on your drinking."

Doesn't matter if it's 1 every 3 days or 5 a day per week, it's always the same answer.

In most cases folks have a blood draw preceding their doctors appointment to check cholesterol, etc. If the doctor is asking you how much you drink it is likely because your liver enzymes are elevated and telling him "1 drink a month" doesn`t fool him lol.
