HMS/EDS and alcohol - - Posted by Stacey (Stacey), 6 September 2003

Hi Everyone

For those of you who have had alcoholic beverages ( ) I have a question.  I went out tonight and was feeling fine for once and I had a single Strawberry Daquri (cant spell).  I RARELY drink and this was the first I had had since march or so.  My question is was that on the way home my knee started to get really sharp pains in it and severly painfull (I am now hooked up to 'my' cyro cuff but dont want to take any pills just in case).  Does alcohol have any effect on joints?
