Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
I have noted your symptoms and feel that you need to be evaluated by a neurologist.
The effects of a drink should not ideally last for four days.
We need to make sure there are no other issues such as head injury (due to a fall which was unnoticed) or blood clots.
Sometimes, thiamine deficiency can occur in alcoholics, which can cause memory loss and forgetfulness.
I hope my reply has helped you.
I would be pleased to answer, if you have any follow up queries or if you require any further information.
Best wishes,
