Has anybody had this experience? Last Sunday I went into town to a pub with my brothers the first time since I got the diagnosis. (apart from the odd single pint here and there. Anyway I had three pints of lager interspersed with 3 soda waters. When my brothers saw me ordering soda water their reaction was "why drink soda water, you may as well drink all lager; 6 pints is not too different to 3 pints". I told them " Apart from being 3 pints extra, if somebody is on medication or has a certain medical condition, people should not try to get them to change a particular diet they happen to be on" I jokingly told them if they wanted to tell me what to drink, I would drink on my own. I think they realised that I was serious and they came to see my point of view
