Thank you for your reply , it's. nice to get information on this , I always thought it would help with relaxation but instead my muscles tighten up especially between shoulders, neck, and into my head and lasts for hours it's excruciating. Thanks for listening.

Callie,alcohol is something I don't tolerate very well anymore.I couldn't figure it out for the longest time why.I would take a sip and feel this strange sensation in my back by my kidneys and get pain around my neck.Fibro unfortunately is intolerant to alcohol.Our immune system is just not able to handle it quite often.Try looking for the lowest alcohol content in a wine or if it is liquor you prefer do the same and mix with unsweetened mixers to help tolerate better.I hope this helps.I look forward to the day when no one will say I am sick(Isaiah 33:24) With warm hugs :~) hope you find your happy medium to this
