Many times when I have a few beers I get the feeling of tiredness and almost want to sleep. Also my strength feels like it’s being sucked right out of my body. This is a result of increased sugars in my blood and what makes me a diabetic.
Some of the side effects of drinking excessive alcohol are:
- Polyphagia – frequent hunger, especially pronounced hunger
- Polydipsia – frequent thirst, especially excessive thirst
- Polyuria – frequent urination, especially excessive urination
- Blurred vision
- Fatigue
- Poor wound healing (cuts, scrapes, etc.)
- Dry mouth
- Dry or itchy skin
- Impotence (male)
