Sick After Drinking Whiskey, Beer. Stomach Pain, Bowel Movement Painful, Threw Up Clear Liquid. Solution?

I went to a party last night. I drank half a beer and a Shit of whiskey and later I began to feel sick. Late at night I woke up feeling I was going to throw up but instead I had a bowel movement that stung and it hurt. I felt somewhat better and went back to sleep but the same thing happened again. I had another rush to the bathroom and the same things happened. Later I threw up clear white liquid and I tried to make my self throw up more. I couldn't. So I just took gravol and tried to sleep.I didn't get out of bed today, just to go to the bathroom and get water. But it's now 9 at night andmy stomach STILL hurts. What do I do?

Hi,

It appears that the alcohol you took has brought on an episode of gastritis. Just taking Gravol will not help. You shall need strong medicines to stop the acid production in the stomach, like proton pump inhibitors (omeprazole, pantoprazole etc), so that acid does not further inflame the already damaged stomach lining. Antacids with cytoprotective agents like sucralfate will also help. In my opinion, you should see a doctor, as you may need certain tests and also since there may be bleeding if this condition worsens. Till you get to see a doctor, avoid hot and spicy foods and take over the counter antacids.

Hope this helps you. Best wishes.
