Hey @smiles12 How are you today?
Thank you for opening this discussion! Managing life with type 2 Diabetes can be challenging in many ways, including giving up your favorite drink, if it worsens your condition. I will try to tag some members, who might want to share their experiences and hopefully, we all can discuss later!

@Polina.K Remember to check sugar content. A small amount of alcohol will not hurt but, drinking to much can especially with diabetes. Your kidneys, heart can be affected the most.

I’ve chosen never to drink alcohol. The buzzed feeling that normal people enjoy makes me feel like I have low blood sugar, which then stresses me out :-/
However, I know Diabetics who feel comfortable drinking dry wines, like a Pinot Noir.
