I once had a cardiologist suggest whiskey given the high levels of anxiety and the impact it was having on my heart's biological pacemaker which has always been somewhat finicky.

With that said, he also said don't tell anyone I said that in a professional setting.

It’s ok. This is not a professional setting.

Not something I'd recommend, personally

I prefer brandy

My mom’s doctor suggested mixing her pain medication with sherry. She was on palliative care and wouldn’t live long enough for liver failure, and they couldn’t prescribe any more than they were already giving her, but she was still in serious pain with the max dosages.
