getting sick after 1 beer
alcohol has never really agreed with me. I was never sure if I could blame that on being gall-bladdarless as they cut it out of me before I was legally allowed to drink.
Last time I tried to drink it was 2 red stripe lagers. I became so violently ill about an hour later that we had to leave, I vomited the whole way home and finally got back home and exploded out of everwhere.
I have avoided alcohol altogether since then, assuming I could be allergic to an ingredient in beer? but I'm even afraid to try liquor.
What's wrong with me?

Thank you very much!
I do avoid alcohol now entirely as the illness is too violent to experience again. I have a lot of other symptoms of food allergies though, today I was able to take a peek in my ears with a video otoscope and in both ears I have big black wax balls. I also get frequent yeast infections and my blood sugar is extremely out of balance.
I try to cut back on the sugar but on a busy day Coca Cola is all I can stomach (my stomach is very sensitive, especially when I'm anxious (nearly always,)) so I think sugar is causing a lot of my problems.
I greatly appreciate your input on the beer allergy, let me know if you have time for any further input on this response.

Hence, you need to quit the alcohol completely. You need to keep always antihistaminic with you. You also need to rule out other allergens which you are sensitive to. You need to keep track of things (maintain a diary) you were exposed to such as food, cloths, drugs etc. and you should avoid further exposure.
The possible allergens in alcohol can be contaminants with alcohol, hapten carrier responses, alcohol or metabolite conjugates. One more important thing is agents like alcohol are believed to increase the rate of allergen absorption.
Take care and regards.
