Allergy to Alcohol??

Published

I don't know where else to post this, but I need help!!

I've been drinking since I was 16...and then within the last year, alcohol would cause wheezing which is probably from the GERD I was diagnosed with a year ago. Is that the same thing as being allergic to it?? PLEASE ANYONE...I'm only asking because it's my 21st birthday tomorrow, and I really want to drink! Other than that, I have stopped drinking and have accepted my position as permanent designated driver =( I'm almost positive it is the GERD that is causing the wheezing, so would taking pepcid AC before hand help?

Everyone here will tell you that it is a violoation of the TOS to give medical advice.

That being said, the only person that can answer that question would be your doctor.

Hi there, I am really sorry you are suffering and I cannot emphasis enough that you really need to speak to your doctor. There are so many things that need to be investigated and looked into and you need to get support and treatment as soon as possible.

We are unable to give you the advice you need as it would be inappropriate for any of our members to speculate on what you need.

Please go and talk to your doctor
