Why does my body react badly to alcohol?

My 21st birthday is in a few days and I’d like to have at least a shot or two, but any time I drink, my body gets hot all over, especially in my joints. My friend who is an EMT had to carry me to a bed after just one shot of vodka. I was burning up and passed out. Any idea why this happens?

Answer #1

What do u mean react badly?

Answer #2

As I described… Feverish, sweating, flushed, etc.

Answer #3

I only do that after I have consumed to much alcohol, try drinking more water the day u drink and that shud cut down the side effects. Everyone is differant, this is just what has worked for me and a few friends of mine

Answer #4

Okay, so dont take shots, problem solved. Theres tons of other drinks out there that you can enjoy. When you shoot liquor straight it hits you harder and faster causing alot of people to over drink anyways, its also normal to feel “warm” or “hot” when drinking liquor straight. Have some beers or mixed drinks instead…shooting back liquor isnt that fun and you wont last long anyways. Its the best way to make yourself sick.

Answer #5

Well, even things like Smirnoff have that effect, it just takes a bit more of it. Like, a few sips.

Answer #6

Then that wud b a sign to me not to drink, ask ur doc what cud be causeing it

Answer #7

because its nasty if i was your body i would be mad at you for putting nasty crap in me i would let you feel my pain………… :p

Answer #8

do you eat and drink plenty of water before drinking? if you do and you still have this problem then maybe you should speak to your doctor

Answer #9

Meaby you drink a little bit too much? Try controling the amount you drink, talk to a doctor to see if something about it is hurting you.

Answer #10
