hi dear,
drinking alcohol for long time and then sudden stopping it leads to withdrawal features which are like anxiety features gabharaman, becheni, palpitation, tachycardia, increased blood pressure etc and other features like hand tremors, nausea, vomiting, sleep disturbance, appetite disturbance.
so consult psychiatrist for treatment and better result.
and dark urine may be due to liver damage . also do liver function test and also do USG.
whether any feature like yellowish discoloration of sclera, or pain in abdomen?
Thank you
