Congenital heart defect and drinking
Sent to Health Experts August 01 09:46 PM

I have been told for years {by my mother, not doctors} that I cannot ever drink. Not just because it isn't good for you, but because of my heart. I was born with pulmonary atresia and hypoplastic right ventricle. I have done research and nothing suggests I cannot drink because it will effect my heart even more. My condition has been treated with surgery but can I really not ever drink? Not even just one glass?
