Drinking And Fibro
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Has anyone experienced changes in how your body handles alcohol? It's pretty new with me but I find even a little alcohol causes huge flate ups the next day. Like " can't get outta bed" flare up. Anyway. Just curious.
Needless to say, I am avoiding alcohol all together.

Same here. I don't have a gallbladder to process alcohol anymore anyway, but even if I have a cider or two, sometimes the next day I'm miserable.

Yes for sure! I've noticed any alcohol causes me to have a flare up and the more that I had drank the worse it is. Which makes me sad I love to have a margarita sometimes.

Yes. I don't drink alcohol anymore for the same reason. I don't need the calories either 😉

Yes! I just had one drink and the next day I was in horrible pain, had immense anxiety, and twitched like crazy. I don't think it's for me anymore which kind of stinks because that seems like that's what everyone does for fun.

yeah, I get severe anxiety and panic attacks the next day. Totally sucks because when I have a pint all my fibro symptoms disappear but the next day, i am in horror. So, I don't drink anymore, I haven't found anything that makes me feel better or does not bother me.
