Vanilla Extract enough to recreate symptoms?
Good afternoon. It has been some time since I posted, but having some serious issues and wondering if anyone can relate. I quit alcohol in 2015 due to neuropathy. I got much better - followed the supplement suggestions of other posters on here, gained weight and thought this was all behind me. The past year, I experimented with wine here and there and it did not seem to affect me in the same way, but I did have some effects. But then it all came crashing down this past August and not I keep trying little bits here and there just to become sicker and sicker. Now I have gastroparesis and am trying to manage it.
The past 3 weeks have been exceedingly rough after 4 days in a row of a glass of wine per day. I am brain fogged, have headaches, paraesthesia, tinnitus, nausea, chills, constipation, cold extremities, lethargy and muscle weakness. Had my electrolytes checked and the only thing off is a slightly elevated potassium level so that is not it. I made a small batch of 7 homemade protein bars with 2 tsp vanilla extract and only cooked them for about 25 minutes at 350. The fact that I am getting worse each day makes me believe that perhaps even the tiny bit of alcohol in the extract is what is causing the issue now? Can that even be possible?
