drinking alcohol with mild CF

I drink...Not alot but at least once a week. I do it in moderation though. If I drink too much the next day I feel like crap and I don't eat and don't want to do anything so it is a set back on staying healthy. I don't know what alcohol does to CF in general or if it even makes a difference. Just what the others said about antibotics. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Oh and I don't have mild CF...I guess it is moderate (beats me!)

Yea, I drink every once in a while. I was absolutely terrified at first when I went to college, b/c I was on so many different meds and I knew most ppl would be drinking. I dont usually go out to just drink or parties, but yea I do like to have a few drinks now and then. I never drink when I am on abx tho, b/c I hate throwing up...lol.

Ya know, I used to drink alot and it didnt really effect me to terribly, as far as hangovers or interactions with meds. However, over the past few years I have noticed that even a couple glasses or wine or one too many gin and tonics make me feel like crap the next day. Since I was diagnosed with CFRD I have only drank twice and each time my blood sugar went haywire so I dont drink anymore.

Sure, but it really dehydrates you and that is bad even for us mild cfers so drink lightly and have tons of water. My sweat test was 36-very close to yours. I get drunk ridiculously fast so I wont drive even after only half a beer.
