a message in my web journal about the Asian Blush, which quickly resulted in over 100 very-informative comments. This forum is intended to be an information source for those of us looking for information about why we turn red when we drink alcohol.

Any one tell me how antihistimines help for reduce redness when they drink alcohol?
Besides reddening of the face, neck and shoulders, dizziness, itchiness, increased heart rate, low blood pressure, headache, hyperventilation, and nausea often occur. also typically occur with much lower levels of alcohol consumption.So pretty much you're still going to feel like shit the next morning.
Antacids are made to reduce the acid in our stomach but after gastric bypass there is very little acid in our new pouch, so I'm not sure how much an antacid will help the problem you are having. Most of the antacids that you are familiar with out there do contain calcium carbonate. antacids can effect the absorption of certain vitamins and minerals. Iron is a big one so if you are taking an antacid don't be taking it with your iron supplements.
Hello.
I am 35 year old male and have an 11 year history of alcohol abuse. I admit that I drink but I like to say that I still keep everything in “normal limits”.About a year ago I quit with drinking But, about a month ago I started to feel some stomach pain and I think they could be caused by long history of alcohol drinking.I have heard that alcohol can damage liver but I don’t know anything about its effect on stomach! Please help!
