Hi.. I have a question relating to alcohol. I'm 21, female.
I have been drinking since the age of 15, and have been what can be referred to as a "binge drinker". When i was younger (15-18/19) I could drink a lot more than I can now, although did get bad hangovers in the morning. However, my hangovers have never been an "average" hangover. I've never suffered from headaches after a night out, and my friends have always commented on how bad I suffer after I have had a drink the night before.
I don't even have to have drank a lot the previous night, but the following day, from the moment I wake up I am violently sick. This carries on throughout the day, on average every 10 minutes, usually until the following morning (so in effect, a full 24 hours of being sick). I can't keep food or liquids down, and find it hard to function.
Lately, the sickness has started in the evening that i am drinking too. I've stopped drinking very much lately, as I'm becoming increasingly worried about what the problem may be. Is there such thing as being allergic to alcohol, or having an intolerance?
I'm also finding myself to be incredibly tired all the time, and my moods are up and down.
I eat healthily, avoiding junk food, and drink very little now. I also suffer very badly from stomach problems.
I constantly have wind, and my stomach is always very bloated. I get very very bad stomach pains, which leave me unable to move and make me feel sick. I also have bad bowel problems. I also occasionally suffer from severe shooting pain up my bottom.
I should also probably note that I suffer from a mild form of polycystic ovaries, which cause me to have irregular hormonal problems... could that be affecting it?
Really hope someone might have an idea as to why I'm suffering from these problems?!
Thank you
