So I get a call from the preadmission nurse regarding a procedure I have scheduled next month. One of the questions is "do you use alcohol and if so how much?" My answer is of course yes and I drink about 6 to 8 beers a week. There is a perceived gasp or at least a "hmmmm" on the other end followed by a series of questions about my drinking history. One of the questions is "Have you ever worried or felt that you drink too much or you should cut back on your alchohol consumption?" Eventually I start asking questions in reply or possibly in defense and she says that the real concern is whether I might start experiencing withdrawal before I am released from the hospital.
So are there any 6 pack a week alcholics out there?
It all just seems a little overboard to me but I could be living in la la land. I don't know. Any thoughts from my drinking colleagues?
