OK so here goes, just remember tone cannot be determined by a quick post. I am not trying to be snarky ;) alcohol in general is not a bad thing, I would like to be able to have an occasional cocktail but it causes my psoriasis to flair and GERD to light up on fire. only you can know how you respond to alcohol, use your best judgement along with your doctors recommendation based on the type of treatment you are on.

My dear an occasional drink or two is going to do nothing for you alcoholic ally. Do you care about your body. Psoriasis is a long road to travel.

Happy healing to you
