[Patti: ] Immediately, shortly thereafter, AND the next day

Wow I guess I am not in this group. I have not been drinking much lately but I

cannot really say I feel the effect the same day. If I feel bad the next day I

can just as easily attribute it to over

doing it in general. Do you feel extra drunk if you drink or just extra tired?

Steve, For me ETOH really interferes with sleep, and the next day is a

disaster! Deb

I almost always get a migrane from even one can of beer within a matter of

hours. Before CFS, I could drink several drinks with no ill effect. Ah, the

good old days. Haven't had any alcohol for several years. :-(

[Patti:] Now a few sips feels about equal to 3 gin and tonics from the old

days. Later I get really tired. Sleep not restful. Next day more fibro

pain, body aches, brain fog, sluggishness, etc. I don't touch alcohol now

except for a few special occasions, and even then its just a few sips.

Even the smell of alcohol is intolerable to me. Just the smallest amount

causes a woozy feeling in the head, and within a few minutes a profound

loss of energy. If I drank any amount, I think I would collapse. The

only exposure I have to alcohol, therefore, is in herbal tinctures which

I put in hot water to evaporate off the alcohol. I set the cup near a

window so the alcohol goes out because even the amount in the air is a

problem for me. Fortunately I never had a taste for alcohol so I don't

miss it. jo

I was always allergic or intolerant of most fire water, especially if I

accidently ate certain marinades..... the combination was shoulder aches or

rashes.....prior to CFS

After the onset of CFS at the end of the day, dinner and chores..... helped

but then mnths later noticed waking up with feeling awful hangover feeling ,I

am sure, just became real intolerant now even minutes after consuming. With

me the sugar , yeast etc. probably had something to do with it. prior was

into choc. coffee, cookies etc.

Now knowing the toxic way we are and thick blood theory, low blood volume.

PS:yrs back in a chat or list met a man that wouldn't take drugs but found

white russians every night helped him, most of us gaged but maybe he was the

first to get benefit from whey...

PS: also alcohol is a dehydrant sp? as caffeine , choc maybe?

> Wow sugar caffine and alcohol all together what a night cap. Over the holidays

I was drinking Myers spiced rum with vanella soy milk -- very tasty. I am on

the wagon right now but I do not think
