How often do you consume that much alcohol????????

The first symptom of alcohol poisoning is usually nausea, followed by vomiting. These symptoms are messages from your body that you consumed more alcohol than your body can metabolize. The following represent other signs and symptoms of alcohol poisoning:

* Slow, shallow, or irregular breathing

* Confusion

* Difficulty awakening the person

* No withdrawal from painful stimuli (for instance from pinching)

* Unconsciousness (passing out)

* Blue-tinged skin or pale skin

* Absent reflexes

* Seizures

It doesn't sound like alcohol poisoning at all. I'm not sure what liver damage symptoms are, but I doubt they include rashes. At the rate you are consuming alcohol, it is almost indefinite that you will experience liver damage at some point in your life.

Pretty much, the rash is one way of your body telling you to NOT drink that much! Listen to the body, it is smarter than us sometimes.
