[Viva] triumeq and alcohol

[anne bonner]

It’s not consistent with drinking really, it hasn’t made me sick with a
couple of beers but last night I had one gin drink and I was almost
throwing up an hour later. The other night about a week ago I had 2 beers
and one drink of tequila and I was up all night and had to call in sick in
the morning! I had a racing heart and felt like I was gonna die. It might
just be liquor? And I’m going to try taking them in the morning. I don’t
normally drink hard stuff so maybe if I avoid that it will be ok. Hopefully!

Thanks for the input!
