Any direct cause for the headaches? I recall you have them quite often?


Yeah, migraines run in the family on my dad's side and I used to get migraines pretty frequently as a little kid. Thankfully, they've pretty much disappeared as I got older, but booze most definitely causes them to come back.

My best friend can drink like a fish and wake up the next morning with no hangover, as if he didn't drink a drop of beer. Motherfucker. I'm so jealous of his superior genetics.

Have you ever experienced a migraine? It sucks :(

No migraines, but heavy headaches as a child. Disappeared when my back was corrected and I started playing golf.
Hangovers for me got bad after i turned 25..

A friend of mine has a sort of alcohol allergy, when he has been out drinking he gets migraines to the tune of staying in bed for a whole day. Doesnt really matter if its just a few wines, or 20+ beers.. Fun stuff when you visit him the day after :)

Ahh, good 'ole golf! Fixes all of life's problems :laugh:. In all seriousness, I really want to learn to play golf better. It's freaking hard, though. I know it'd do wonders for my career, too. Also, it's just a fantastic sport that you can enjoy with buddies for a long, long time.

Besides the headaches, I don't really get the other associated symptoms of hangovers, like nausea, lethargy, anxiety, etc. I just get really.******.headaches. I'm scared that all the other ****** symptoms will begin to surface as I get older :(.

I can relate to your friend -- even if I drink two beers, that's enough to trigger a headache, so I drink to get drunk. Only then is it worth it lol. I don't really do the whole 'have a couple beers' type of thing because the headache isn't worth the moderate buzz I'd get.

ALL OR NOTHING, BABY!

It's official.

I do more damage to my liver through over-consumption of not alcohol, but ******* excedrin.

Jesus christ this headache just won't go away.


I hear ya. I never take more than the recommended dose, but I do feel like I take it too frequently. I don't have time to drink prodigiously anymore, so I don't worry about my liver as much as I worry about my stomach from the aspirin.

We should start some sort of Excedrin accountability pact where we agree to only take it when we really need it. :laugh:

Did it piss her off, too?

I had to take 3 doses (6 capsules, holy **** that's frightening) over a span of 8 hours before it fully went away. Just checked the bottle and the maximum daily dosage is 8 capsules!!!

+1 to the pact -- although I'd break it pretty much every Saturday and Sunday morning :embar:.

^^Dude, you are really tearing up your body. Either put up with the pain, take a shot or cut out alcohol.

i puked during a 5K run today :fu:

I was starving before the run and my friend offered me a powerbar. I forgot how much I hated those things and managed to get half of it down and was already queasy at the start of the race. It felt like a waste so I stupidly forced down the other half anyway. When i could feel I was about to blow chunks (first mile) I pulled off to an alleyway and puked up a lot more than I thought I had in me. the funny part was that two more random dudes ran up next to me and started puking too. This race Coogans 5K is notorious for having the most hung over runners because its sponsored by a famous hospital/neighborhood/police/ect bar. Everyone usually parties at the bar all night before the race and doesn't care because its only a 5k anyway. The group puking brought out a real sense of togetherness.

Aha, couple of friends of mine ran that today, or was it yesterday at this point?

I'm seriously contemplating doing Tough Mudder in NY this coming October.

there's going to be a spartan race (similar tough man type race) in citi field this april. They look like a lot of fun, but are a lot more expensive than I thought it would be.

I can only imagine the 7 train after the race in citi field in april.... i wonder if cops will even let people caked in that much mud will let people on.

Why did you run for 5K? Was someone chasing you?
