That doesn't sound good. I have never had that problem, but it sounds like something is going on.

Asthma, steriods and alcohol

Not that I was ever a big drinker before, but I am noticing more andmore now that whenever I have a alcoholic drink socially, I often feelsuper hot and my heart rate goes up. It has become so uncomfortablethat I do not even want to have a drink anymore, which is a bummer ata dinner or a party when you want to have a nice fancy drink in yourhand and that relaxed feeling that it gives you (or used to, for me).Is this an effect from the steroids with the alcohol? Does this happento anyone else? It never used to be a problem so I wonder why it is now.

it's a combo of things, first I'd stop the drinking, I did it messes

with the stuff in your system to control your asthma.

Is this an effect from the steroids with the alcohol? Does this happen to

anyone else? It never used to be a problem so I wonder why it is now.

Hi . I am on a high dose steroid daily regimin, and due to that I

have steroid induced diabetes. Now mind you the diabetes is not that

big a deal. Very easily controlled, but I have found that one glass of

wine or one mixed drink and my sugar goes through the roof. However,

one beer will not affect me like that. The beer has just as much

alcohol as the wine. So, my thoughts are that it is the sugar in the

different types of alcohol. I am used to having a little wine with

dinner from time to time. So, it could very well be the meds instead

of the asthma itself. So next time try your favorite beer. It may not

make you feel so bad.
