Heavy drinking detox Posted: 02-19-08 17:15pm


I have been drinking relatively heavy since the holidays. It would be from 2 drinks to 10. And sometimes I'd not drink at all. I am trying to go dry today and I'd had only 2 beers yesterday. I drank friday saturday and sunday but not last wed. and thurs... My symptoms: blurred vision tight feeling in my head nausea my body feels feverish I woke up in a really awful mood. The scary thing: my heart rate is at 122 bpm, this doesn't seem too high, about as high as when I jog, however it's freaking me out. Hospital? Or will I be okay with some fruit juice, or just one beer?

I would drink a pint of water and go back to bed and resolve to change my life!

Try some orange juice. At least 2 glasses. If you pulse rate is still that high after resting for a couple hours, then yes, I would go get it checked out. The more you dwell on it the worse it will get, because it will bring on an anxiety attack which sounds like you are already having.
