Alcohol and chemotherapy

Hi, I've had me first session of ec chemotherapy and had no side effects as of yet . My wedding anniversary is coming up and was wondering if still no side effects that it's ok to go for a meal and have a few drinks? 

  • Hi Mertal,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. I'm glad to hear you're getting on OK at the moment and congrats on your upcoming anniversary.

    There are certain types of chemotherapy that you shouldn't drink alcohol with. You can find out more here.

    You should discuss this with your doctor so that you can get an answer specific to you and to be on the safe side.

    Wishing you all the best,
