Either things get better after a couple of drinks, or I don't seem to care as much. I haven't noticed what happens when it wears off and have only drank more than a few drinks once since getting VS - the VS was MUCH worse the next day, but then I was up to the wee hours drinking... Since starting topamax Alcohol has hit me harder and introduced dizziness which I understand is to be expected with this combination.

After the 10th beer though, you tend to stop worrying about things like vs, so maybe high levels of ethanol could have some kind of effect on it. Unfortunately high levels of ethanol aren't conducive to judging/remembering the state of one's vision "So far, I had not opened my eyes. I felt that I lay upon my back, unbound. I reached out my hand, and it fell heavily upon something damp and hard. There I suffered it to remain for many minutes, while I strove to imagine where and what I could be. I longed, yet dared not to employ my vision. I dreaded the first glance at objects around me. It was not that I feared to look upon things horrible, but that I grew aghast lest there should be nothing to see."

Especially when I have another symptoms of hangover (headache, sickness,...). So I think, that the vision symptoms may be connected with liver. But I suppose, that my liver is OK, because I had standard blood tests (they should recognise liver problems too) done, and they were OK. Maybe it's connected with brain? Who knows :-/ Col8B

Registered User Posts: 56 03/18/08 9:23 PM	YES!!!!!!!!!!!!! i had vodka on saturday night I HAD to test it because i BELIEVE alcohol influenced my VS to start ugh, while drinking (wasnt drunk enough) the VS zoomed up and flew crazily across my field of vision, got brighter-bigger- I started seeing the oddest afterimages, in the dark it was horrid, and it seemed so though everything became less sharp the next day after wasn't so great either NOW number one to consider- I had just worked a nine hour day before drinking and the next day after drinking i had another nine hour shift with only 4 hours of sleep - could have been the culprit Number two- I didnt know i was on the verge of getting a cold until Sunday- which means my immune system was dwindling and could have made the VS worse Never Say Never
