Re: [IPk] Alcohol intolerance



I stopped drinking beer and lager about 15 years ago because it suddenly 
starting having a similar effect (not as drastic, but I'd get a really 
bad hangover from just a pint).
I also became very intolerant for a long time after I had my most recent 
operation (after which I was ill for days, turned out I'm allergic to 
morphine and codeine). I'd have a glass of wine and fall asleep! It took 
me months to get back to being able to drink several glasses of wine 
without a hangover the next day or falling asleep.
