Was too young to know my tolerance beforehand. My lack of tolerance seems partly genetic, partly due to illness.

I'm intolerant now - can't even take a teaspoon of herbal tincture, steeped in hot water until it cools, without my head reeling.
It has something to do with lack of vitamine B6 and gluconeogenesis.Has anyone asked their doctor why this alcohol intolerance might be present?
yes cort my OI specialist explined it cleary to me that it is because aclohol causes peripheral vasodilation; hence more bolld to the estremities, even less blood available for the heart and brain.Has anyone asked their doctor why this alcohol intolerance might be present?
I can't have even a drop of alcohol. It makes me toxic ill
and always end with tachycardia up to 160 bpm.
