What Causes Stomach Pain And Blurred Vision After Drinking Wine?

I am 41 female, excellent health. Last night, I drank three sips of a wine cooler and about 5 minutes later, I had a stomach ache then all of a sudden I had blurred vision, like a haze around the people around me. Then my ears became clogged, like hearing underwater. I became dizzy and started sweating profusely. I was told my eyes got glassy and was acting like I was drunk. My eye movements were chaotic.I laid down and about a minute later it passed. I got up and felt much better. Was this an allergic reaction to the alcohol? I have never experienced this. I rarely ever drink and this was the first time having this particular wine cooler.

This doesn't seem to be allergic reaction of wine but could be vestibular disturbance (ear) or TIA.

Better if it is checked by ENT specialist because vestibular problem may cause vertigo which you had most probably. If its excluded, transient ischemia could be one reason but it may be once in many years to many people.

Hope it hints you well.
