Weird reaction to alcohol?!
Question: I don't drink frequently but on special occasions or vacations my parents will give me a glass of wine or a beer or sometimes something harder(very rarely though). sometimes right when i start to drink i get a strong muscle cramp in my right shoulder that extends across my chest and down my side and arm. usually the cramps aren't bad and go away quickly but i had one over christmas that lasted a really long time and was extremely painful. does anyone know what might cause this. i never drink enought to get drunk so i don't think it has to do with being over my limit.

sounds like you are allergic to alcohol (which is kind of rare, I think) or allergic to something in the alcohol (wheat or whatever else it is made from)...I'd suggest not drinking at all. Good luck!
