Lost Power In Arm, Leg, Severe Headache, Chest Tightness After Drinking Vodka. Allergic?

Hi, I was just wondering if I could be allergic to vodka...in October last year I was at a friends christening party and drank vodka next day I wasn t feeling great I lost the power in my arm and my leg went from under me and I had a severe headache 2days later I was admitted to hospital with expected stroke I spent a week in hospital turned out that I had bad migraine . I recently drank vodka and next day woke up with same symptoms, which rectified itself within 2days. Last night I drank vodka again bare in mind I only do have 4 or 5 vodkas with diet 7up today I have tight chest and headache. Could I be allergic??. I would appreciate your advice thanks.
