Members with stage 4 mantle cell lymphoma weighed in on whether to stop drinking wine, with the general consensus being that an occasional drink may be fine but checking with your doctor first is the wisest step. Several members shared their own experiences, including one who paused drinking during treatment and later got the green light for a couple of drinks per week with no issues, and another who mentioned their doctor approved light, occasional drinking. A recurring theme was hopefulness around treatment options, with members sharing encouraging news about therapies like CAR-T and targeted drug combinations keeping MCL in remission.
