| Hi, I have had this problem for since I started drinking mildly. My throat burns up and sometimes feels like it is closing up. I get no other symptoms other then that. Would this be simply an allergic reaction? |

I have had the same problem. However, it only occurs with beer. You may be having an alergic reaction to barley. |

Allergies are responses mounted by the immune system to a particular food, inhalant (airborne substance), or chemical. In popular terminology, the terms “allergies” and “sensitivities” are often used to mean the same thing though many sensitivities are not true allergies. The term “sensitivity” is general and may include true allergies, reactions that do not affect the immune system (and therefore are not technically allergies), and reactions for which the cause has yet to be determined.
Dr Balch's nutritional team has created a formula designed to help control the body’s immune response to an allergen and the symptoms of a moderate response. Vitamin C and Quercetin both are good natural anti-histamine agents. Bioflavonoid Mix potentiates the functions of vitamin C. MSM and essential fatty acids contained in Flaxseed have the property to reduce inflammatory reactions. Thymus has shown to calm the immune response. Lactobacillus Acidophilus are thought to reduce the potential for allergies. Nettle has demonstrated to be effective against hay fever. Betaine HCl assists in the digestion of food and reduces the potential for food allergies.
If you are concerned or unsure about your symptoms, please contact your healthcare provider for professional medical advice. |

Have just answered a similar question on yahoo answers and have linked your two questions cos it sounds like u might be having similar problems. See:
answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070311113843AA1O03n&r=w#RLt4U1PFFWxRewlaVBIJ
Hopefully it is just something like an allergy but I do want to just mention that if you have pain immediately after drinking alcohol I do think you should see a doctor as it is a very rare symptom of Hodgkin's lymphoma. I don't want to freak you out as, like I said, it is very rare and more likely that you are just reacting to something in the alcohol, but felt I needed to mention it just in case. There are a couple of sites that you might find useful:
ubb-lls.leukemia-lymphoma.org/ubb/Forum2/HTML/000904.html
pubmedcentral.nih.gov/picrender.fcgi?artid=1010854&blobtype=pdf
Hope this helps and that the problem is sorted out soon. |
