Drinking beer

Thinking of having a few beers for new years just had a PM installed 6 week's ago seems to be working well just nervous on how I would feel after drinking a few beers?

I used to drink wine but gave it up completely about 2 years ago.  It made my heart race someting awful.  In fact, I wonder if that was an early symptom that I was developing heart block. I was visiting my daughter in Italy and the restaurants had table wine like we have glasses of water.  I freely imbibed not knowing that it was stronger than a cheap American table wine.  YIKES!  My heart was going crazy (this was before my PM) and I couldn't sleep a lick.  I was miserable.  Fast forward 10 years and I needed a PM.  

Most people on this site have no problem with their hearts/PMs when drinking - especially with low alcohol like beer.  For me, however, it was something I could easily control and I feel much better without drinking.  Give it a try and see how you feel!  Happy New Year!

unrelated to pacing

Medications may affect drinking and your heart, possibly the underlying condition, but simply having a pacer has no effect.
