Whenever I consume even a few sips of alcohol (I've only tried beer and wine) my arms and legs start to ache terribly and my heartbeat seems to become irregular. I first noticied this feeling when I was a child and took Nyquil for the first time, which tells you how little I need to consume to experience this effect. Because it makes me feel so bad, I've never had more than a few sips of alcohol at one time. Could this be an allergy or is it simply that I haven't built up a tolerance yet?
