Alcohol again

Post by Richie »

I was wondering if the dehydration associated with alcohol consumption causes or aggravates this condition to a great degree for some users.

Alchool

Post by rational »

Hi Richie,

Unless it's a randomly delayed reaction, I've never been able to associate alchool with my symptoms. I drink once or twice a week and get drunk a few times a year. I suppose you could get affected depending on if alchool relaxes you or makes you stressed and violent. If it's related to a food intolerance it might depend on the type of beer and the chemicals it contains... I've tried a month without alchool and I still had ups and downs so I cleared that off the "possible causes" list. :-D
