Alcohol intolerance

Dear PR

Is there any drug which helps to tolerate alcohol again (on a few social occasions)?

Furthermore, why does the alcohol intolerance which is highly prevalent in ME/CFS not provide us with more insights about the metabolic changes/problems in ME/CFS?

I'm not aware of any. Although my tolerance of small amounts of alcohol had improved with treatment of other aspects of this disease.

It should.

Alcohol has many negative effects, too, so I'm not sure that the goal of drinking more alcohol is wise.

I just would love to drink once in a while (on a good day) with some friends and forget about everything ....
