I to have a strange reaction to alcohol. After just one beer I get very bright red on my face and the rest of my body. I also get uncomfortably hot and have a little difficulty breathing. I can also feel my heart beating very fast. I know these reactions sound serious, but i can drink a fair amount. There have been times where I have consumed 5-6 beers in a couple of hours. I am half caucasion and half japanese, 6 feet 2 inches tall and weigh 230 pounds. Please tell me whats going on. I like to drinf, but these reactions make it difficult during large social occasions
