Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have shaking, dizziness and sweating after having alcohol which is because after having alcohol due to its diuretic effect body started loosing water and become dehydrated. To over this natural defense mechanism of body works in form of sweating, shaking and dizziness. It is temporary. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to drink plenty of water and fluids . You should avoid taking alcohol as it is causing dehydration to you. whenever you take alcohol drink plenty of juices and fruits along with it. Visit general physician once if symptoms keeps on persisting and get it examined.

Hope your concern has been resolved.
