Alcoholic, Had Tachycardia, PVCS, Shaking Hands And Legs, Nausea All Morning. Took Diazepam. How Serious Is This ?

Hi there -
I am an alcoholic 25 year old female. I drank as usual last night, and have had tachycardia (120 bpm), pvcs, shaking hands and legs, and nausea all morning. I drank a glass of orange juice, but it didn't help. I've also taken 10mg of diazepam (I suffer from anxiety). I'm just wondering how serious this is and if I need to go into the ER.

Hi,
thanks for using health care magic.
I have gone through your available history.
Nausea, Tachycardia, shaking hands and legs can be because of both alcohol withdrawal or as a symptoms of anxiety.

But you should consult deaddiction center to get rid of alcohol and anxiety.
thanks
