Alcohol allergy tachycardia

Common Questions and Answers about Alcohol allergy tachycardia

alcohol

Avatar m tn My tachycardia was initially brought on by alcohol. I had WPW and had 3 episodes in my life. I quit drinking for nearly 1.5 yrs. I recently had an ablation 1 month ago and have since had several beers. I am optimistic about my ablation because more than 1/4 of a beer within the last yr would have landed me in the ER.
Avatar m tn Is it safe to drink alcohol occasionaly while on a very low dose of Atenolol? Will it worsen tachycardia? I have never experienced tachycardia or any other issues while drinking, however, but I have never tried drinking on this medication. I read that it could worsen dizziness and drowsiness, but is there a possibility that it could cause anything life threatening at such a low dosage and with my drinking habits? Thank you so much for your answers!!
Avatar f tn It definitely sounds like you could have some type of allergy to alcohol! I have a friend who has very similar symptoms after drinking but his normally starts within about 6 hours of having a couple of drinks. Alcohol allergies at some level is surprisingly more common than most people think. My advice, talk to your Dr. about it just to make sure its nothing more serious ie: liver issues. Good luck!
779797 tn?1263618235 s called intoxication, not allergy. None of your symptoms point to an alcohol allergy. I suggest you stay away from it. Why make matters worse? Have you seen a doctor for any of these symptoms? Something as simple as an inner ear problem can also cause dizziness. Allergies can pop up out of nowhere. Did you test positive for anything?
Avatar m tn Avoid wine and alcohol products if you know that they trigger an asthma/ allergy attack. There are already a number of wines without the preservatives that causes the allergy. But have yourself tested first with what you are allergic to.
Avatar f tn To be honest I don't think there are any restrictions though I would say if you notice drinking makes you feel worse then stop. I have to say I did not realize I would get some sinus tachycardia after drinking hard liqueur. It doesn't happen with beer but I had some hard liqueur about 6 months past my ablation, woke up to some tachycardia in the 140s and realized that a few of those episodes I had after some partying may not have been my svt after all.
Avatar m tn I had an allergy to alcohol. It gave me asthma that once was so sudden and severe that I was blacking out. Luckily my dinner partner was a doctor. I was subsequently cured of the allergy. The throat problem certainly sounds like allergy, except for the delay in your reaction. It should be immediate. It seems more likely that alcohol or some additive in the alcohol is toxic for you. If that is the case you should never drink anything alcoholic.
Avatar n tn I am checking into Celiac disease, fructose malabsorption and now sulfite allergy-thanks guys. I also have trouble with water hurting my stomach. Sulfite allergy would explain that. I will post more after my GI appt.
Avatar n tn What is the relationship between obstructive sleep apnea and inferior ischemia and unexplained tachycardia? Can one be the sign, symptom, cause or risk factor of each other?.
Avatar m tn Our reaction to alcohol is what makes us alcoholics, not how much we drink. The best way to describe it is an allergy to alcohol. When we drink all bets are off. We end up with consequences. Her relationship with you was based on the Tony before the bottle of Vodka. When you become that Tony again, things will change for the better. But the most important thinking in sobriety is to be sober for YOU and you alone. Learn to love yourself. All else will follow.
Avatar f tn It is difficult to find the cause of rapid pulse or tachycardia on net. Tachycardia can be due to low BP, anemia, hyperthyroidism, fever, low blood sugar, anxiety and panic disorder, heart causes like sinus tachycardia and palpitations, alcohol, coffee, effect of certain drugs etc. Hence, if she takes too much caffeine or alcohol, then this needs to be cut down. Also you need to consult a doctor to run tests to rule out other causes. Take care!
Avatar n tn hi ive been told i have sinus tachycardia and im very worried i would like 2 ask u is it dangerous?
Avatar f tn That is VERY possible Please be careful if you think you have an allergy to alcohol. A dear friend of mine started off with slight symptoms when he drank...they progressed over time...he began to get very violent when drinking ( after only one drink!)...one night he simply stopped breathing after only having one swallow of beer. As with ANY allergy, you never know when the severity may change.
Avatar f tn Hi, I am a 56 year old female just diagnosed with non-sustained ventricular tachycardia with no underlying heart disease. I have been taking allergy therapy for the past 4 years, 2 shots a week. I started getting tachycardia symptoms at the begining of the year. I had just switched over to taking allergy drops because the shots have not been totally effective after all this time. An hour after taking the first drops I got a strong run of tachycardia (six seconds) with pre-syncope symptom.
Avatar n tn Garlic and onions are natural sulfites, too. I am allergic to alcohol, too, but cooking evaporates the alcohol. It was clearly the sulfites. Check out some information about the basic food elimination diet online. You can go through this long process to find out what you're sensitive or allergic to. I've had this sensation you were describing with similar foods. It did turn out to be food sensitivities and allergies.
Avatar f tn Hi. Im 18 and was diagnosed with tachycardia. My heart rate runs from about 106 to 115 on a normal basis. My question is can i have a couple of beers with my friends and be okay? or will it effect my heart rate? If anyone one knows the answer to this plz get back to me on it asap. Thanks.
Avatar f tn Hi, welcome to the forum, alcohol is known to cause flushing in some individuals. You are not allergic to alcohol. It causes direct vasodilation of the skin, related either to alcohol directly or its metabolite, acetaldehyde. Alcohol is oxidized to acetaldehyde in the liver by alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH). This acetaldehyde is further converted to acetic acid by acetaldehyde dehydrogenase.
1399363 tn?1462342610 Antihistamines are a known trigger for people prone to supraventricular tachycardia. All my life, I was unable to take allergy drugs because of this reason. I would check with your physician, and pharmacist because I think there now may be compounds available with give the desired effect without the side effects. You could also address the tachycardia issue and eliminate that which would allow you to take any antihistamines with experiencing the side effects.
Avatar n tn I asked for help on here a couple weeks ago for my alcohol intolerance/allergy. The first couple of times I ever drank I my forearms would swell up and break out in hives and itch very badly. I haven't gotten the hives in a while but my forearms still swell up and itch. Someone on here told me that I should take an antihistamine such a levocetrizine or cetrizine. I took 1 Zyrtec and I felt fine for a couple of hours but my arms eventually swelled up and started to itch again.
Avatar m tn First, stop drinking so much. Second, eat a healthy diet. Third, go to a doctor and get tested for a gluten allergy.
