Sixty pint beer binge leads to four-week hangover
Thu Sep 27, 6:11 PM

PARIS (AFP) - It may be the longest hangover in the history of binge beer drinking. When a 37-year old man walked into a hospital emergency room in Glasgow, Scotland last October complaining of "wavy" vision and a non-stop headache that had lasted four weeks, doctors were at first stumped, the British journal The Lancet reported Friday.

The unnamed patient "had no history of head injury or loss of consciousness; his past medical record was unremarkable, and he was taking no medications," Zia Carrim and two other physicians from Southern General Hospital said in a case report.

Body temperature and blood pressure were both normal, and a neurological exam scanned negative.

But when an eye specialist was called in, the fog began to clear, at least for the doctors.

The patient, said the ophthalmologist, had swollen optical discs, greatly enlarged blind spots and what eye doctors call "flame haemorrhages," or bleeding nerve fibres.

"We sought a more detailed history" from the patient, noted Zia drly.

That is when the man revealed he had consumed some 60 pints -- roughly 35 litres -- of beer over a four day period, following a domestic crisis.

Severe dehydration caused the alcohol, the doctors guessed, had led to a rare condition called cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST). A scan of the brain's blood vessels confirmed the diagnosis.

CVST -- which can cause seizures, impaired consciousness, loss of vision and neurological damage -- strikes three or four people per million, mainly children, every year in Britain. The cause is generally unknown.

It took more than six months of long-term blood-thinning treatment to restore the man's normal vision -- and to get rid of the headache, the doctors reported.

I did 18 one night when I was 15 and that was a tottal puke fest. I actually dove into the beer big time when one of my friends dissapeared into a room with the chick I wanted to score with. So I just pounded the beers after that until I spewed puke. LOL!

He must have something else wrong with him perhaps a small tumor behind his optical nerve.

Or he is not telling the truth of the other things he was using.

After 20 or so -Pints- as he calls them his liver would shut down and that is when you have the," I drank myself sober"' situation because your body stops prosessing the alky and it goes thru you just like water.

[jharp84]

I'll tell ya what! Thome! Me! You! And Fuckin Ace! there is a drinkin contest right there! Juice

[thome]

I knew this guy who never lost a drinking contest he would just go in the bathroom (sanctioned piss break ), stick his finger down his throat..... boom..... Winner!!

The best I ever did was, well one of the best, was 10 am till 3am on the same barstool 75.00 cash and 60 on my bar tab and I never bought anyone else a drink.I was bought perhaps 11 shots by others that's just the way this mom and pop bar was.

Then once I had 40 beers in 6.5 hrs on a canoe me and my canoe buddy put 80 beers in coolers in our canoe and by the end of the float we were bumming more from the others in our float party.

Granted the action of the water and the sweating out and the cooling off.

I ain't bragging just telling a tale.

Ps. don't even bring up the drugs Ohhhhhh Sh!T....

Could be some of the reason I chose to not punctuate and find splelling typerwriting ...What was the question/

I like Pie!
