Hey, I have never drank before,
But I have had a Liver transplant because a small amount of cf people get "serosis of the liver" (sc?)
I had that. I would hate for you to end up that way because you where a drinker! But that's just me!
I doubt you would get that into it but just a little friendly warning!<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Drinking dehydrates you, which is really the basic cause of CF, not enough water to thin out the mucus. I find if I overdo it not only do I get a headache and sick to my stomach but the stuff in my lungs is even harder to cough up. Also if you're drinking to the point where you are throwing up you are drinking too much. Vomitting is a sign of alcohol poisoning, your body is saying you've had too much and is trying to get rid of it. People with CF can drink as long as you don't overdo it. Besides getting totally smashed makes you do and say things you never would anyway, so it really isn't more fun.

Oh yeah, I'm 23 by the way <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> I just happened to see this thread.

"3 or more" is a bit generalized. It takes some people 1 drink to get smashed, and others it may take as many as 10++. You can't say something like 3 or more and expect it to stick to everyone. Besides which, when people start drinking, you learn pretty fast (especially if you have one bad night, hangover from hell) what your limit is. Just thought I'd point out, even if you're 15 and you know drinking too many isn't good for you, doesn't mean you can tell everyone what their limit is.

Is that what I'm saying? Absolutely not. I didn't check to see the age of the original poster, nor was I really replying to them. I was stating an opinion on the use of the single phrase "3 or more" and how it was too generalized.
