alcohol abuse stomach pain

it seems if a person drinks enuf to become physically dependent on it..as a rule they r a substance abusers cos alcohol is used socially and not prescribed for pain anywhere that i know of...a person who drinks nightly..to the point they feel bad if they dont or get sick..is a substance abuser/alcoholic...addicts and alcoholics are both substance abusers Pain meds however..people can become physically dependent on and Not be an true Addict..nor do they abuse it..

Becoming free from alcohol is a very doable thing. But remaining free from alcohol takes work. I had to take part in my own recovery and work on myself so I would change. If I don't change nothing changes. Nobody could do that for me. But there are millions of us in recovery all over the world. So freedom for you is out there waiting. Keep your willingness and continue to make the steps in the right direction like you've described in your post. You don't have to be sick anymore.

My question is this I have a history of alcohol abuse, it started about 12 years ago when I had my child, I met a guy (who I spent 10 years with), could never get a babysitter so he started bringing beer into the house (only ever drank when I went out prior to this) after a year we were drinking a full bottle of scotch together every night,I had a very highly paid job god only knows how I kept it without being dicovered, after 10 years I left him tried to make a new start abroad it went wrong I

If you look at my past posts, I have been dealing with neurological issues for some time now. I have been very depressed about everything, from having to quit nursing to my inability to work and drive. During this time, I have been turning to alcohol to kind of deal with my problems, not such a good idea, I know!!! It hadn't seemed to be a problem until last night. A group of my friends, including my boyfriend, went out for my birthday.

substance abuse is the only thing that gives me episodes. I wonder how much of the drugs and alcohol actually starts the process of these disorders. Everyone says I am a patient and kind person and i usually just keep my mouth shut about things. Throw some alcohol into it and i am out of control and telling people what i really think. I may be depressed afterward but i have no remorse for my actions afterward. Sometimes i wonder if it really is a bipolar issue like everyone says it is.

Is it concluded that there is to be no more alcohol of any kind forever? What about after you have cleared the virus?

But he is slowly dying. His pain is very likely his liver. 30 or 40 years of alcohol abuse will do that, not to mention the whole host of other problems he's going through, every one of which I guarantee is either caused, or exacerbated by the alcohol. Don't get hung up on figuring out which particular organ is shutting down. If he won't go to the doctor on his own then you need to take action. There are intervention counselors in your province available.

Welcome to the forum. None of us are qualified to give you any sort of diagnosis, especially online. If you're using alcohol as a way to deal with anxiety and depression, you could be heading down a slippery slope. It already sounds as though you need to figure out exactly how bad your "problem" with alcohol is...and the sooner the better, before it gets any worse.

I took two Solpadol pills and within half an hour of taken them i was rushed into hospital with severe stomach pain. The doctors ran test and i was told it was pancreatitis. I was checked for Gal stones, was clear. They said they found no cause, and it was put down to alcohol misuse. I am not a heavy drinker. Could the Solpadol have caused this? I read in the leaflet one of the severe side affects is pancreatitis.

ETOH abuse. The following is a summary from a medical article on alcohol and GI tract: "Alcohol consumption can interfere with the function of all parts of the gastrointestinal tract. Acute alcohol ingestion induces changes in the motility of the esophagus and stomach that favor gastroesophageal reflux and, probably, the development of reflux esophagitis. Alcohol abuse may lead to damage of the gastric mucosa, including hemorrhagic lesions.

s been going on and off for years. I used to abuse alcohol, but have been relatively clean for over a year, with a few relapses here and there. Could this be something like pancreatitis or something else?

Why do i have pain in my upper left stomach, nausea after i eat, loss of appetite, and everytime i drink water it makes it worse

Hi, i have suffered from ednos, eating disorder with periods of severe restriction, laxative abuse, cocaine abuse, and excessive exercising. i was in recovery for 3 years, but relapsed this year and lost about 50lbs in 3 months. For the last month i have been in recovery again.

I also cannot drink alcohol because i also get this pain and have also had fainting spells from this. Other ways this can happen is from over-exercising or simply not getting enough sleep! huge problem so please any help is appreciated.

Every time I eat, i get a sharp pain in my stomach. This has been going on since as long as I can remember ( since I was little, i'm 23 now ). The pain is feels like a knife is going into my stomach, and is severe.

Our daughter was forced to have unsupervised custody last week where she informed us that he was vomiting all evening. I have researched symptoms of alcohol and Tylenol abuse and found possible signs of liver damage. For the concern of my daughter, we are extremely scared on what he is capable of when she see's him. We are hoping anyone who has experience on this could offer us advise.

can gabapentin abuse cause severe stomach pain?... a months supply (90 pills) is gone in less than a week.

Normally, my stomach would be fine, but after particularly heavy nights I had severe stomach upset, pain, and diarrhea. Children can leave the room for this next comment, but I also had dark or bloody stools on some occasions. Stop drinking and see if your situation improves. You won't get better instantly - it will probably take several days to get past this (it took me as many as 5 days on those occasions). Take some pepto, eat right, and stay off the booze completely.

Alcohol increases the acid in your stomach. The irritating effects of alcohol may cause gastritis (inflammation of the lining of the stomach), pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas), or a peptic ulcer (a raw area in the lining of the stomach or intestines). Alcohol can also damage your small intestine and keep it from absorbing nutrients. Alcohol can keep you from getting deep sleep, which may mean a less restful night's sleep. Also, drinking alcohol can make insomnia worse.

my stomach looks as if I am 5-6 months pregnant (even though I don’t eat the most healthy diet, the weight is all around the stomach and looks like a baby), pain in ribs on left hand side approx 5 days out of 7, trouble having a poo (having to take laxatives quite a lot and then have diarrhoea), lots of wind, stomach pain on most days, mood swings, recent period of 6 months of irregular periods (every 2 weeks), feeling tired/not sleeping. Any advice gratefully received. Thanks.

Hence, in your case, alcohol may be the culprit. May be you can avoid taking too much of it one go as usually it’s the abuse of alcohol which results in muscle spasm. I hope that helps. Kindly do keep me posted.

Well when I use to use coke I would just be numb and not want to be around people highly doubt coke or maybe pain pills cause when first started them I was very good mood and always talking or possibly alcohol cause people like to talk when drinking and they laugh too but you probably wont know for sure unless they tell you or a drug test.
