I'm allergic to gin and my solution is to not drink gin. Avoid the alcohol type you're allergic to?

I used to get it in the younger days, last couple years of college and a few years after, only after heavy boozing for multiple days in a row. Usually would go away after pounding water. I’ll get it a Very mild case of it these days usually involving drinking some IPAs.

I know a chick who is allergic to red wine. Drinking more than a glass causes her to take off her panties.

If you are allergic to something it seems to make sense to avoid it. If you cannot avoid it knowing you are allergic to it then there may be a larger problem developing.

OP, this is sage advice. I also suffer from your drinking malady, no doubt that the tons of drinking I did over the years has led to heart issues as of lately.

Listen to your body.

I have had similar issues and concluded it was related to blood pressure. Having higher blood pressure and then drinking alcohol sets it off and it isn't consistent. Just a thought of all of you having flush issues related to drinking should have your blood pressure checked.

You do know that disrobing is not a symptom of an allergic reaction?

Try: "I know a chick who has a weird reaction to Red Wine: More than one glass and her panties come off."
