They are a much talked about subject due to the self inflicted feelings of sickness and nausea they cause a person. But a hangover is not the only reminder of a heavy drinking session. The British Royal College of General Practitioners highlighted the potential harm related to alcohol arising from either regular heavy drinking or intoxication. They categorised the resulting problems as social, psychological or physical, and listed these problems in two lists – Problems as a result of heavy drinking and problems as a result of intoxication, drunkenness.

In the nearly 5 years that I have been teaching Nutrition there have been two high profile deaths from Water Intoxication. The first was a 21-year-old Chico State College Student, Matthew Carrington who died in 2005 after fraternity hazing. The most recent one occured just two years later in 2007 when Jennifer Strange, a 28-year-old mother participating in a Radio Station contest to”Hold Your Wee for a Wii.” Both occurred in Northern California. It is interesting how serendipity works at time. While I was lecturing on these unfortunate cases of Water Intoxication, a settlement was being reached in the lawsuit filed against the ...

The next day she attended the accident and emergency department but was sent away diagnosed with a hangover. Normal doses of self-administered paracetamol overloaded her liver due to her dehydrated state and she subsequently underwent a liver transplant. Unfortunately she then had a stroke and died in the intensive care unit. Her 18 year old sister who was also a student nurse went back to Ireland in a state of distress. My last shift in theatres before I departed to University ended with an alcoholic man bleeding to death. I still remember the distinctive smell of blood which at first could not be seen.
