Hello Danielle!
Welcome on Healthcaremagic!
You should know that alcohol may trigger seizures in your clinical situation. From the other hand, you should know that your brain is more vulnerable to alcohol compared to other normal individuals.
For this reason, I would recommend avoiding alcohol intake.
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Kind regards,
Dr. Aida
