I asked my oncologist and he didn’t say either way. So I’m not sure now.

My understanding is that the occasional drink is not a problem. However, if you’re having issues with your liver then you should slow down or completely stop drinking alcohol.

My hemotologist told me no,due to it being a carcinogenic and our livers don't need assistance with going on the brink...this is what I was told, made sense to me

A glass of wine now and then won’t hurt . That is what I read. If you drink a lot it can increase swelling in lymph nodes. Otherwise it is ok . 😉 personal choice is what I see . Moderate drinking ok . I stay clear of it because it makes me feel hot .

Wouldn’t think so, but consider consulting your oncologist.
