Strange Body Ache Followed By Chills, Tiredness After Moderate Drinking. What Could Be The Cause?
Hi! Just interested in the reaction I had after 2.5 drinks last night. I did combine champagne and a mojito but spaced out by three hours. At the third location I started drinking another mojito but stopped as soon as I started feeling strange body aches - very similar to what my immune storm felt like after my tonsillectomy last year. By the time I got home I had started feeling chills. I didn t have a thermometer and was so tired I just fell asleep. it is now 6:30 the following day and I m still achy and tired but no headaches , nausea , dizziness , nothing. I ve never experienced anything like this, due to alcohol. 2.5 drinks should not have been an issue...though I don t drink often. Any ideas?

Such different experience may be because of the mixture that you consumed.
Better to avoid such mixture or avoid taking both in quick succession.
You need to check your vitals including blood pressure
