Does drinking Red Wine or Champagne cause sneezing, flush, headache, diarrhea, skin itch, or shortness of breath?

Unless I drink too much red wine as with anything else I would get a headache.

Good point, I'll qualify the question asking if drinking a glass or two of wine/champagne.

Yes I do feel a bit flushed with drinking wine, red or white, and some spirits.

Some one says it is because it increases the blood pressure. But I have been like this since I began drinking, and there is nothing wrong with my blood pressure.

I think it is because alcohol seems to have a warming effect, by opening up the pores in your face that it makes you feel warm and flushed. I might be wrong, and yes it does not feel or look nice thinking I have a red face, it seems way worse when I am tired.

Forgot to add, that warm feeling would happen just after one glass of wine.

In the morning -- Yes,

During -- I sometimes get flush drinking wine, but I chalk that up to "the experience"

Almost all of my friends and family have headaches from red wine the next day...

I don't drink red wine because I like my beverages cold, champagne can give me a headache, but god champagne is worth it! :P

I was told that drinking lower end wine/chamapgne can caus eheadaches as a reaction to the tannins in the grapes etc.

However, I do not have this problem.

I don't get a headache from red wine or champagne. I sometimes get one from white wine. However, I don't normally drink white wine, probably for that reason.

Some wines contain casein, the milk protein. I have reacted to red wine before because of casein.

Red wine affects me, but I was told it is the histamines in it. Sometimes wine and champers do it to me too. I've nerver had diarrhoea from it tho.

I have a solution that works for me - If I am going out and know I'll be drinking wines, I take an antihistamine - works brilliantly. Sadly, it does not help prevent hangovers if you overconsume :)

Champagne makes me dizzy, but I tend to overdo it when it's decent stuff. Decent reds don't give me a headache.

I agree - partake too much and the next day get the results. During the drinking though, after the first glass of a nice red (white is too often aged in Oak and I just don't prefer Oak flavor in my wine) I sometimes feel the flush feeling (almost like an instant effect), but I always thought that was due to cutting out all other alcohol (I miss ice cold beer, and 7&7's....). Sulfites are very prevalent in reds.....

As far as the lower end - I would recommend almost anything by Rosemount Estates.... I have never had symptoms while enjoying a glass of theirs....

Yes, and it makes me barf (and I'm talking maybe 1-2 glasses, so it's not like I get drunk). I can drink anything else with no problems, but wine just doesn't agree with me at all.

HEY GUYS LEST WE NOT FORGET GRAPES ALL GRAPES ARE DUSTED ,TO CONTROL MILDEW

WITH SULFER!!!!! Sulfer is a well known allergen. It makes no difference how much you wash grapes with soap or water or any type of produce wash the sulfer is still there in an amount that can cause an reaction.

I have been unable to use any wine in cooking because of an allergic reaction. This also goes fo any grape related fruit drink!!! Watch your kids! Reactions can be anything. dizziness shortness of breath, hives itchy skin diarrhea etc... I can only eat those grapes that I or my family members grow since we dont use sulfur. There is hope .... I have found good results using a soak/ water bath of 50/50 white vinegar and water to clean any store bought grapes. Keep soaking than rinse till the water bath comes clean..

I finally gave up "trying" to drink wine last month. At first I would get D the next day every time I drank a glass. Then that stopped and I thought it was just the brand. duh. I read that it's good for the heart so I would have a glass a 1-3 times a week for my blood. I have a history of DVT. It was like Russian roulette! Sometims it wouldn't bother me and sometimes I'd get a hurendous migraine that lasted 2 days, the next day after drinking it. I tried changing brands and it would be ok for awhile then, the migraines would start. I finally gave up and stopped drinking it. However, port, especially Sandman's didn't bother me. Why would that be? I believe it's imported from Spain.

:huh:

WHAT? How do you know if it has casein in it?? News to me!

laurelfla Enthusiast

i get a headache only from red wines, usually when i drink it but sometimes not until the next day. my dad said he heard that serious wine tasters take antihistamines before going out. ;)

      Hi @knitty kitty  Just revisiting this to get some help. I found after understanding the extent of my anxiety, my sleep got a little better. Flash forward to a few weeks later I have had a few bad sleeps in a row and I feel desperate for a good nights sleep. I understand worrying about it won’t help but one thing I had tied things too was dairy. Initially when I went gluten free I felt great for the first few weeks then started having some stomach pain. So thought maybe I was lactose intolerant. I started eating lactose free Greek yogurt and that did help take the cramping away I guess. Over the last few months I haven’t eaten it every single day and I went a few weeks without it. The last few nights I did have a small amount with breakfast and noticed that was the only new thing I’ve really added to my diet. I had seen a few other posts about this. Is it possible to still react to lactose free? Would this potentially be a dairy allergy? Or something else.

      I have taken the vitamins for a week. Haven't noticed any major changes but I will give it more time to see.

      @Charlie1946,  Sorry I sidetracked your thread a bit.  Apologies. Proton pump inhibitors, like Omeprazole, change the pH in our gastrointestinal systems which allows opportunistic microbes to move in and take over.  Have you been checked for SIBO?  There's a significant link between length of Omeprazole use and SIBO.  I had SIBO, thrush (Candida) and lichen planus and other problems while I was on Omeprazole.  I had to stop taking it.  It was a horrible time, so I understand how painful and frustrating it is.   You change your microbiome (the bacteria and microbes living inside you) by changing what you eat.  They eat what you eat.  Change the menu and you get different customers.   I changed my diet.  I cut out dairy because I was reacting to the casein and lactose.  I cut out all processed foods and most carbohydrates. I ate meat and veggies mostly, some fruit like apples and mandarin oranges.  By cutting out all the excess carbohydrates, lactose, and empty carbs in processed gluten-free foods, the opportunistic microbes get starved out.  SIBO bacteria send chemical messages to our brains demanding more carbs, so be prepared for carb cravings, but don't let the microbiome control you!   The skin and digestive system is continuous.  The health of our outside skin reflects the health of our gastrointestinal system.  Essential B vitamins, like Thiamine B 1 and especially Niacin B 3, are needed to repair intestinal damage and keep bad bacteria in check.  Niacin helps improve not only the intestinal tract, but also the skin.  Sebaceous Hyperplasia is linked to being low in Niacin B 3.  Lichen Planus is treated with Niacinamide, a form of Niacin B 3.   Vitamins are chemical compounds that our bodies cannot make.  We must get them from our food.  If our food isn't digested well (low stomach acid from Omeprazole causes poor digestion), then vitamins aren't released well.  Plus there's a layer of SIBO bacteria absorbing our vitamins first between the food we've eaten and our inflamed and damaged villi that may have difficulty absorbing the vitamins.  So, taking vitamin supplements is a way to boost absorption of essential nutrients that will allow the body to fight off the microbes, repair and heal.   Doctors are taught in medical learning institutions funded by pharmaceutical companies.  The importance of nutrition is downplayed and called old fashioned.  Doctors are taught we have plenty to eat, so no one gets nutritional deficiency diseases anymore.  But we do, as people with Celiac disease, with impaired absorption.  Nutritional needs need to be addressed first with us.  Vitamins cannot be patented because they are natural substances.  But pharmaceutical drugs can be.  There's more money to be made selling pharmaceutical drugs than vitamins.   Makes me wonder how much illness could be prevented if people were screened for Celiac disease much earlier in life, instead of after they've been ill and medicated for years.   Talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing essential vitamins and minerals.   Interesting Reading: The Duration of Proton Pump Inhibitor Therapy and the Risk of Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12250812/#:~:text=The long-term use of,overgrowth dynamics is less clear.

      My sebaceous hyperplasia and thrush disappeared when I stopped all dairy.
    • Charlie1946
      @knitty kitty Thank you so much for all that information! I will be sure to check it out and ask my doctor.  I am just at a loss, I am on my 2nd round of miracle mouthwash and I brush and scrape my tongue and (sorry this is gross) it's still coated in the middle
