Question

I'm really worried about my brotherI could use some advice. He's 32 and had angioplasty with 2 stents about 1.5 years ago. Right now, he's doing okay and just takes one tablet in the morning that the doctor advised. But here's the thinghe's started drinking alcohol twice a week, and he claims the doctor said it's fine. I'm not sure if he's being completely honest or not. Is drinking okay for someone with his heart issues, especially considering the stents? What could be the pros and cons?
