THIS is why you should not get drunk after WLS

Oh wow...I am soooo glad you are okay!!  I drink wine and ****tails (margaritas, mexican martinis, cosmopolitans etc.) with no problems and have since about 3 mos out but I will definitely stay far, far away from vodka and red bull!

Hey are ya up for some "shots" tonight?   I kid, I kid.  Glad you're doing better.  Remember Red Bull + vodka =

Thanks for sharing Katester. I know I get really thirsty at night even after 2 glasses of wine, just feels not so good like pre sleeve.

Glad I'm not a red bull drinker!!! I pound back quite a few rum/cokes or strawberry mojitos without issue. I no longer get drunk fast, then sober up fast. I still don't get hangovers, I never puke, and I feel a little "exhausted" the next day, but nothing that really keeps me down much. I didn't drink for the first 6 months post-op, and experienced the drunk fast, sober faster thing at first, but now my tolerance is back to what it was pre-op, and I'm able to maintain a good buzz on a few drinks when I go out with the girls.

Hope you feel better soon! ! !
