Hungover? Flu? Allergic?!


Question: The past two nights i have been drinking with some friends, our choice drink is vodka. The first day drank i came home and slept all day(hungover) and last night i got drunk, But today i have been soo sick i didnt puke last night but i have been throwing up all day and cant keep anything down, not even water or peptobismol(heartburn, indigestion, upset stomach, diaherra medicine) My parents think im allergic, to alcohol i get soo sick after i drink. I think i have the flu im chilled and i have a horrible stomach ache. But maybe i just get that hungover? What do you think i should do?
Obviously not drink, but doctor and anything wise?

Sounds to me like you may have drank a little too much and maybe got a bit of alcohol poisoning. Maybe you should switch your choice drink to something else for a while. And also drink a little less. Then see if it happens again. If it does you may be allergic.

lay off the booze to start.The chills part sounds like the flu going around though.

if you were allergic you would probably get a rash as well, or soemthing physical on ur body....thats what happens with my friends

how much do you drink? if u drink alot then yea u will get a pretty bad hangover, like what u described.

if u dont drink alot and u get those symptoms, maybe u were slipped something in ur drink??

if it happens again, go see a doctor FOR SURE

info on how much vodka gets you drunk would be helpful
stop drinking first
im not a doctor but your body may be weak to any alcohol so you get very hungover very easily
my unprofessional suggestion is go see a doctor and until you dont drink anything your liver could collapse
i hope this helps

It could be a combo of the two

It may be food poisoning. Happened to me years ago after a "rough" night on the town and a late-night visit to "Waffle House". I woke up the next day sicker than I have ever been in my life. Just like you described. A friend who is a nurse told me to get some of that over-the-counter medication for motion sickness (can't recall the name but they are probably all the same). I took it and that was the ONLY thing that relieved my nausea, vomiting etc. Otherwise, Emetrol is also very good for nausea and vomiting. Hope you find something that works and feel better soon.

Vodka can do that to you. Drink beer instead. Make sure you eat plenty before you drink. You probably have chills because your body is running low on fuel (food and water). Lay off the alcohol for a couple days, try to eat (soup, bread, nothing too dense), and if you still do not get better, see a doctor.

i'd say hangover,alchol depletes your salt,thats why drinking dill pickle juice,or saur kraut juice next day seems to help,and few days in a row ,yeah prolly think its flu,if it hte flu wouldn't want to drink 2 or 3 days in a row.
