Very wavy...

Thread Starter 
Had a lot to drink last night, I think around a bottle of vodka and a 3 beers.
Today I woke up feeling a little bad, so I had quite a bit of coffee, quite a bit of vitamin water, and a couple of paracetamol. Although this got rid of the headache, it left me feeling ten times worse, quite shaky and nauseous, I had a gin and tonic with dinner and felt a little better, still a little edgy (must be the caffeine?) What's the best cure, its not really a hangover, more like too many vitamins and caffeine to try to avoid a hangover...

While not always practical, I have never found a more effective hangover treatment than a little 'hair of the dog'.

Fatty food, believe it or not, is scientifically the best cure.

Personally, I like a good asian noodle soup. Works every time.

Why didnt you just have an energy drink instead of the Vitamin Water, which is pretty much a gimmick wrapped around a name. Shit is mostly sugar water, with some vitamins.

+1 to fatty foods

Cut out all that other crap and rely on water and time...sometimes that's all that will work.

I like my coffee and asprin as much as the next guy, but on after a good bender, all that works is water and time...(although the coffee and asprin make the time more bearable)

...and a couple of paracetamol.

That's a potentially fatal mixture right there.

Bouji's daily alcohol intake is potentially fatal.

Last weekend I had a half a bottle of Glenfiddich and a few beers. After some dim sum (read: Chinese greasy food) and tea, I was normal again. (But then again, I rarely get hungover.) Alternatively, go for some Vietnamese pho and take a nap afterward. Personally, my liquid of choice after some heavy drinking is just some hot tea.

Well since the only thing that made you feel better was a drink, and since that was not enough alcohol create any of the intoxicating effects which might be analgesic in someone with your tolerance, I would suggest that perhaps you have developed an alcohol dependency.

Kinda. I know alcohol + Aspirins type are ok, but i know some of the other types (acetaminophen and/or paracetamol?) will be not so good.. might not kill u.. but some causes stomach bleeding and other shit. Or maybe it's the other way around? lol Should ask a doctor.
