Can i drink alcohal after gama knife surgery how many time it takes to destroy the tumor?

Gamma knife almost: Always means a single session...The action may take weeks to months to assess regression and assess for other lesions. I would be very cautious about alcohol and not grant permision unless it is granted by your neurosurgeon and radiation oncologist.

No: Alcohol is a poison that never did anybody any good, ever, so stay away from it.
