Will i be able to drink alcohol with half of my pancreas removed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, but...: Hi. Why was half of your pancreas removed? Cancer? Psuedocyst? Phlegmon? If there's no contraindication to your drinking, yous should be able to drink with half a pancreas. If you have a problem with alcohol and/or it's caused you health or other problems, I would advise against it. To your health!
