Wow,no alcohol for 21 days

[seclark]

right before Christmas one year, doc gave me a script for an antibiotic one time and told me, no drinking. when i got it filled the pharmacist gave it to me and said no drinking.

couple days later, my sons were home and one of them handed me a beer. i thought, "wth...one beer won't hurt". i took 2 drinks, my guts started rolling and i shot a power stream of puke that would drown a fish. made me sicker than hell and scared me to death.

if they say don't drink w/the script, either don't drink, or don't take the meds in the first place.

yup. I agree.

I've seen a bit of a different situation it was a relative of mine but w/o the meds. Dude was experiencing a tremendous amount of stress, pressure from his job. One night he went to a stag, had a few, and next thing you know, he croked..Collapsed and fell to the floor was gasping for oxygen. He had a hard time breathing so they had to rush him to the hospital and they said he was experiencing a panic attack or anxiety attack. The attack was stress related but the booze triggered it even further. It was really scary.

The guy I replaced died in his sleep at age 35. He hurt his back, got some meds, had 2-3 drinks and went to bed. This, mixed with his sleep apnea did him in...they assume.

Yup, sleep apnea and drinking and pills don't go together. I know a 22 year old that had sleep apnea (kinda obese but not gross) was drinking and was either taking zanax or lean (promethizine with codeine cough syrup) and he went to sleep and never woke up.

There are a couple of antibiotics that were made to help get alcoholics to quit by making them super ill like above when mixed with alcohol...
