Sue, my Dad doesn't have the same cancer, nor probably the same chemo, but
about hard liquor - I would think that's bad for anyone on chemo as it isn't
terrific for anyone NOT on chemo! However, my father did find that a little
beer or wine (at room temperature) helped his nausea and improved his
appetite. He had to drink it before or with a meal though, not inbetween.
His doctor said it was fine as long as it was no more than one glass and not
on a chemo day. -chris
