Trust me. <BR/><BR/>I haven't been able to eat potatoes without some weird body reaction in the same time period, and I'm fairly certain that's some class of crime in Ireland. ;-)<BR/><BR/>I can't eat high sugary foods either. Same weird body reactions.<BR/><BR/>I'm sulphite intolerant, I'm lactose intolerant and I have high blood pressure, high cholesterol and a thyroid disease called Hashimoto's. <BR/><BR/>Even if I wasn't sulphite intolerant, I still couldn't drink because of the Lipator for the cholesterol.<BR/><BR/>There are many of us in the same boat despite the differing reasons. I have been where you are right now in regards to the alcohol ban. Really, is sucks monkey butt. Especially at my family get togethers where that's the one thing I looked forward to to get me through the guilt, the bile, the anger and the rudeness that is my family Christmas highlights. :-) <BR/><BR/>To compensate, I moved away and stayed away. I no longer can bare my family sober. Hee.<BR/><BR/>Stay strong. You have a very good reason to say no, and don't let yourself waiver from it: your health.<BR/><BR/>Stacey<BR/>strangeaddiction.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09363524587438729136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7976334216965295921.post-1613532796247771242008-09-30T10:17:00.000-04:002008-09-30T10:17:00.000-04:00That sucks big time.
