Low-grade fever the day after drinking a fifth of gin?
Hi
I sure hope someone here can help shed some light on what is going on with me here and wether or not it is normal. I am very scared and desparate for an answer. Ok, I usually drink anywhere from a few beers to maybe a 6-pack but yesterday I got a bit carried away and consumed an entire fifth of gin over the course of the evening which I mixed with lemon-lime soda. I finally "passed out" on the living room floor and later woke up and fell asleep on the bedroom floor. When I woke up this morning I was very hungover and "out of it". It felt like I had just gotten over the flu or something because the alcohol had apparently really taken a toll on my system. I had creamy diarrhea that almost looked like bile because it had the same color and consistancy of used motor oil (sort of a dark olive-green). I staggered around all day trying to get things done but it was slow going because I felt sick and "fluey" from all the alcohol I had consumed the evening before. My stomach burned and I just felt really yucky. Then, after I'd eaten dinner, I felt even more "fluey" and so I decided to take my temperature and was alarmed to see that it was 99.7. My temperature does tend to fluctuate but given the fact that I felt pretty hungover and sick and that my temperature was elevated, I became concerned and began to wonder if consuming a fifth of gin and then not drinking anything at all the next day could lead to a low-grade fever like this. I am also wondering if drinking alcohol can lead to diarrhea. Does anyone here have any knowledge or experience with this?. Thank's again - HP |

Why don't you give it a shot first and report back to me and if it does'nt kill you, I'll buy your next bottle so you can repeat the experiment with hopefully a different outcome. Thank's again for the great support (I'm already feeling like were married or something). - HP |

Drink your head off, feel like crap for a few days, start feeling better, get wasted all over again, "rinse and repeat" as neccessary. I think you hit the proverbial nail on the head with the liver thing incidentally. My poor liver is probably on it's knees right now )-: |

You need to practice this over and over with a liter of gin or vodka a day for say, 3, 4 or 10 years, then your be in much better position to complain about feeling like shit, limited liver function, and *puking* up bile instead of shitting it out of your butt hole. Your still a rookie in this game. The real signs you may be getting worse is when you wreck your mom's car because you wrecked yours last month, lost your job, wife leaves you, your homeless , and your dinner comes from a screwed off bottle of $2 mad dog, and you still haven't accepted your problems are from drinking too much. Check back when you reach that point and we can help you then. Cheers. Yet. |
