Alcohol withdrawal symptoms

I am current going through alcohol withdrawal alone (day 2). Cannot keep even the smallest amounts of food. After some time without much warning I violently regurgitate everything including stomach acid.
This happens several times a day and know it's probably damaging my esoughogaus sphinkter,
Now I quite frquently belch and somethimes get hiccupps from what seems to be nothing - just trying to expel something, Very frequently bending over or lying in bed, Antacids help somebut not enough.

Do you think I have already damaged the esoughogaus sphinkter? What can I do?

Drugs and booze always age people prematurely because the organs are taxed.  I always forget about lung cancer regarding alcohol, it always seems related to smoking.  The crack ****** are the worst when it comes to the aging process.  The pictures I've seen are scary beyond words and the short time it takes for a person to look totally trashed and 90!

I always for get about pleasant things like pancreatic cancer. Good info! Beer and other forms of alcohol CAN cause lung cancer I've recently read too. "A study published in the American Journal of Gastroenterology found that people who drank more than one beer a day were more likely to develop colorectal cancer than non-beer drinkers."

I don't even remember some things, but yeah it only takes a few drinks for DUI nowadays; costs literally thousands of dollars w/ lawyer fees, plus a ****** driving record... employer finds out too; not good, and health, always a concern.  Folks always worry about liver, but booze is hard on the heart and other organs; easy to have stroke and heart attack too.
