SHOULD I GO TO THE HOSPITAL? 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.
