I am not a big drinker and especially now but will have a drink once in awhile but in the next 24 to 48 hours after I can pretty much count on my legs being in a lot of pain and numbness. Does anyone else have any problems with Alcohol?

Yes, I don't drink alcohol at all any more. I feel it makes my meds less effective. I can count on more intense symptoms the 24 hours following having alcohol. It simply isn't worth it to me.

Yes, alcohol effects me.

I don't drink anymore either. I've had maybe 3-4 glasses of wine this year on thanksgiving and whatnot but I've noticed it takes me out for a full day or two even if I only have one glass so I'd rather not :)

Yes as it kills the effect of the meds.
