Avatar n tn What is a typical fatal blood alcohol content for non-alcoholics versus alcoholics?
Avatar f tn The acute effects of alcohol depend on the concentration of alcohol in the blood (directly correlated with the amount and time of drinking). Initially, alcohol generally produces feelings of relaxation and cheerfulness, but further consumption can lead to blurred vision and coordination problems. After excessive drinking, unconsciousness can occur and extreme levels of consumption can lead to alcohol poisoning and death. Hence, it is definitely not due to stroke or heart attack.
Avatar n tn Communications with deceased family members or friends take many forms including seeing them, hearing their voice, feeling them touch you, smelling their cologne, perfume or a favorite flower, sensing their presence or experiencing signs such as electronics turning off and on spontaneously, finding coins in unexpected places with the year of their birth or death, and seeing the deceased in vivid dreams.
Avatar m tn Hello, a few days ago I went on a binge of about 72 hours, I drank one 750ml of 40% alcohol, another 375ml of 40% alcohol, and about 3/4 of a 750ml of 46% alcohol, along with 3/4 of red wine and 15 cans of 6.1% beer. I woke up on the third morning with severe confusion and what seemed to be uncontrollable tremors, for example, my ab muscles would involuntarily contract and pull my head forward. It scared me to death, so I drank a couple of my remaining beers and it went away.
Avatar n tn If someone has a blood alcohol level of 4.5%, does this mean that they are intoxicated?

937805 tn?1319617788 Pretty bad, lots of inflammation and possibly too much alcohol use with a high GGT like that (49 is high range of normal). Screen for all viral heps, celiac's disease, autoimmune hep, several others. Once you can track down the cause you can begin addressing it with medical treatment. The doctor dance is no fun at all, very anxious and disruptive, but you should get things started before any more damage is done. Good luck.
Avatar f tn More than 100 medications interact with alcohol, leading to increased risk of illness, injury and, in some cases, death. The effects of alcohol are increased by medicines that slow down the central nervous system, such as sleeping pills, antihistamines, antidepressants, antianxiety drugs, and some painkillers. In addition, medicines for certain disorders, including diabetes and heart disease, can be dangerous if used with alcohol.

Avatar f tn I know that alcohol consumption can make anxiety worse. I drank A LOT last night. But so far today my heart is racing, my vision is blurry, I'm super dizzy,my stomach is upset, my chest hurts, and the very center of my upper back hurts. I'm also a self-proclamined hypocondriac/cybercondriac. I had 5 panic attacks from the time I woke up until now because I think there is something wrong with my aorta or because I have a pulmonary embolism. I can't stop crying.
967467 tn?1247509575 as far as health problems, which account for the 3rd leading cause of preventable death in the u.s., alcohol use causes brain damage, organ failure, and cancer among other conditions. alcohol users are also 3 times more likely to become seriously injured.
Avatar f tn If there is no brain activity, then it is a case of brain death (the heart still pumps blood). This is an irreversible condition. In your mother’s case it could be a case of alcohol intoxication dimming brain response, or a chronic vegetative state, coma, hypothermia or hypoglycemia (common after alcohol withdrawal). This is a tough situation, one that cannot be assessed on net. Please discuss these possibilities with your mother’s treating doctors. Take care!
Avatar f tn Stroke is a medical emergency and can cause permanent neurological damage, complications and death if not promptly diagnosed and treated. It is the third leading cause of death in the United States. It is the leading cause of adult disability in the United States and Europe. It is the number two cause of death world-wide and may soon become the leading cause of death worldwide.

Avatar m tn just tell me whether YES or NO the alcohol before giving blood (after 10-12hours) I have had affected my Combined Nontype specific Herpes test results..
Avatar f tn Hi bleedinqueen. Welcome to the forum. as stated above what you are mixing with alcohol could cause death. It only takes one time. If you are running from something in your past it may be a good idea to deal with it thru therapy. I had everything one could want except I could not find the joy in my personal life for I was still in pain from childhood traumas. Once I received help it allowed me to move on and actually enjoy life this is something I had not done for a very long time..
