Can These Be Alcohol Withdrawal Symptoms?

I have been drinking quite frequently for the past year and I stopped drinking any alcohol for the last 9 days. Day 1 and 2 I had headaches but felt quite good after that. Last night I drank 3 quarters of bottle of wine and woke up early hours with terrible ache in chest and upper abdomen and frequent urination which eventually eased the aching somewhat. Today I have felt really stiff as if I am bruised. what could be causing this. I am 36 female about 19 st 5ft 9 and have pcos also

Hi thanks for posting your query on health care magic.

These symptoms are most likely due to alcohol withdrawal symptoms.

Drugs like benzodiazepines can help to lower the incidence of these symptoms.
consider giving up alcohol under expert deaddiction center.

consult your doctor for further queries.
