 Posted: 11/19/06 - 05:20 Post subject: extreme stomach discomfort after drinking alcohol |
  |
|
so, i'm not usually a hypochondriac or anything.. but i fear something is wrong. lately (in the last month or so) when i drink alcohol i experience severe stomach pain.. like horrendous gnawing, churning, mouth wateringly bad pain. accompanied with nausea, serious bloating, gas, and tonight after having one glass of white whine my pain and nausea were so bad i vomited. it wasn't consistent, every time i drank, up until the last two weeks and now it has been every time i drink any amount of alcohol. (which obvi isn't very much when i am in pain, heh) I have never had any aversion like this to alcohol. I am 21. i don't drink very heavily. frequently though. other than being an extreme good time killer (tonight was one of my best friends birthdays, would have liked to have been able to have more than one drink at the bar, ey. and not go home clutching my stomach in tears! woe! agony! i am not cut out for this enjoyment of alcohol and good timery thingy that is going on, bye folks!) it's very painful. anyway, hmm.. 21, i think i am generally healthy, in good shape, eat very healthily, no medical issues. i have no idea what can be causing this....  the pain is also always located upper abdomen..under my sternum pretty much. |

| I have been having the same thing occuring to me. One beer and I am bent over in pain and nausea that night and the next. I never drank too heavily either. A fun night for me is like 5 drinks... now 1 is too much trouble and not even worth it. |

|
|
| Have a friend that went through the same problem of nausea and vomiting after drinking beer for a whole month. He went to the doctor several times but they kept sending home, telling him it was a virus. He finally seen a different doctor and found out he had appendicitis. They did an appendectomy on him and that cured his problem. |

Yes I have been experiencing pretty much the same problems.
I conducted a thorough medical examination and the doctor concluded on a 'slightly' irritated stomach with some reflux issues.
We have probably developed alcohol intolerance over the years, so I am afraid you guys have to stop consuming it... |

my son also gets this when he drinks, which I think is a good thing!! ha!! but he takes prevacid and can't drink only one to two beers and he is sick, he thinks that he has stomach cancer and I don't know what it could be, other than his body just can't take the reaction to drinks. does anyone know what causes this problem?? |
