I don't think Susan is in the right frame of mind to comprehend it at the moment. Plus there are varying degrees. I imagine you, like myself, didn't get told it on a forum.
True, but we are here to share what we know, or we may as well just pat each other on the back everyday until there's no one left.
You need to see a doctor Susan. Are you alone at home? In fact, if I was a friend or relative if yours, I would call an ambulance. Not that A & E would do much about your alcohol problem, but they would, at least check you over medically. You may have something wrong that is not alcohol-related, but even if the alcohol has caused it, it needs checking out.
Get somebody you know on the phone and have them come and see you. You may well be even more ill than you think.
Play nicely, boys.
We are all here for each other... in the best ways we know.
Take care.

Are an are you awake, Susan?
Are you alone in the house?
You can phone a N.H.S. Helpline. You may need medical help.
They send an ambulance.
I don't want to scare you. I am just worried, if you are alone.

How was the nap? I took one yesterday when I was drinking and felt more like crap when I woke up and then continued drinking...but today I did not drink..it was hard...cause i felt horrible....but I did not drink. Thank God.
We are playing nicely, we were just about to start a game of top trumps. I was going to meet his oedema and raise him ascites.
Oh Heavens ! This is a very serious situation..... but I have now just hurt myself laughing.
Hey, look, when you've got it, you can either get depressed about it or laugh about it. I choose the latter, because one thing you cannot do, is forget about it. If Richard meets my ascites, I've loads more cards to play.
It's Roger... for your game of top trumps.
Beware, he might have a pack of diuretics up his sleeve !
I use capachino.
Anyway, I'm not playing, it my ball & my bat, I can't be out or I'm going home.......
I've got several packets downstairs.

So I have that covered. In fact some time in the next hour, I will take my pot of medication, so I don't feel any side effects as I sleep.
We are all going to have to behave now..... or the Big Moderator will put us on the "Naughty Step"!!!
You must be asleep now, Susan.
Blessings on you,

Hello Susan,

Hi.I did give you an update 20 minuets ago.So sorry if you didn't recieve it.All that WATER is exaparating !X
I had just Posted to you, when I received Notification of your Post !
I am so glad that you managed, last night. It is a Hell of a carry on. I felt daft directing the crawling... but you don' t fall and hurt yourself... it can be sore on the arms and elbows, though. Oh well !
On the topic of Drama Queens... what can I say ! We create our own Dangerous Dramas... then realise that things are too far out of our control. I have had to phone for an ambulance, in the past, because I feared for my life. Off to A. & E. at 3 a.m.--- with empty bottle of 40% vodka. That happened in November 2015, twice. The third call was made by my husband...I had mixed up medication and felt heart attack type symptoms.
It is all a freaking, living nightmare. The death wish talk is all part of it.
The panic drama is very real and terrifying. When we come out the other side of it, we feel foolish. I do then feel glad to be alive, but so sorrowful. I think I probably need Psychological Help.
How old are you, Susan, if It's ok to ask ? I am 60.

Also 60 ish But today I feel like 200 years old.Definatly passed all this grief.X
