I hardly drink alcohol ever, they always ask on an average week how many units do you drink and I always answer 'none'. Because my average is zero, my mum says I should answer not enough, as a joke. Im not offended they ask me, and I am young and a student. I changed GP surgeries this year so introduced to new nurses and GPs but this week I saw a specialist at hospital for hormones and even he asked and noted my alcohol intake! Aswell as a nurse for when I registered at the new surgery and also when I saw a dermatologist for acne. And most GPs always ask me when they see me for the first time.
It just makes me wonder, is drinking alcohol really that bad? For them to ask me all the time?
