What Causes Numbness, Dizziness And Listlessness After Drinking?
I don t drink very often, but starting last year every time I do drink for the next up to 5 days I feel numb not completely but not right feeling and also very spacey like i m not even here forgetting things, dizzy, tired, and even a feel a little panic from it. I don t take any kind of medicine or have any kind of health issues that I know of. I just really wish I knew what exactly is causing this to happen so maybe I can fix it.
