Alcohol poisoning?

I calculated my BAC level last night and this thing states it was 0.21% but I think it may have been higher because I also didn't urinate for some reason except once after I started drinking (and I just found out every time you urinate 10% of it leaves your body) and I drank on an empty stomach.  Is that enough that I got a small case of alcohol poisoning?  I woke up puking everywhere which I never do unless I'm REALLY sick and I was shivering even though my family member says it was hot in here and I don't get cold easily on top of that and I was confused and other unpleasant things.

Hello,
On the 4th July my friend and I got drunk. That very same night I puked once. The next day I woke up with what I thought was a hang over. I puke twice that day. I tried to sleep it off and it did not work.
Now a week has gone by and I still have a very very slight head ache, fuzzy vision, and a slight balance problem. I have still managed to excel at basketball and go to work. My mind appears to feel the same and my work ethic has not changed. Do I have Alcohol Poisining? Am I just dehydrated? Should I go to the ER? I would like some answers

I'm still having trouble eating and feel sick to my stomach with food still.  Oh well maybe it will be good for my diet.

I would say stay away from alcohol just because of the medication you're on. That could have made you extremely sick. I've never heard the equation of 10% leaving the body every time you urinate and I've studied a lot about alcoholism and addiction. I used to give myself alcohol poisoning on a regular basis when I drank. 2 day hangovers were standard, and at times I would throw up over 15 times in a day. Steer clear of it, it's poison on it's own but certainly even more dangerous in combination with meds. Might as well not take any chances.

I don't have a tolerance at all and never have even when I was drinking really potent 75.5% alcohol.  I'm on Abilify.  I know, I may be smart but I'm really stupid in this respect.  I drink like once every week or two right now but after what happened this morning everyone is going to throw my booze away when I have any.
