    I have seemed to have begun to be allergic to alcohol though, my mouth swells up, well my gums to be precise something chronic, a friend at work (well, old work :cry:) her lips and tongue swells up when she drinks alcohol. Funny cos it only started happening last year and she's the same age as me :eek:



    with me, its talking bollox....


    Was thinking of going on "Britain's Got Talent"......

    Hi, can anyone tell me the name of the herbal medicine you can buy to curb the craving for alcohol, am sure I have read on here that there is one.

    Many thanks

    Kudzu is supposed to have properties that help with cravings but it never worked for me. Welcome kink, stick around :)
