Is it possible to have organ damage from one night of binge drinking?

Is it possible to have liver, kidney, or pancreatic failure from one night of binge drinking?
I'm 18 and weigh 120lbs and have been drinking for 2 months, yesterday I drank a liter of whiskey (half of it throughout the day, and the other half all at once during the night).
I've been hungover before, but I've never felt like this so I think something else is up.
I am really worried I caused brain damage and severe damage to my organs.
(Its been longer then 24 hours since I last drank but I still feel ******) My symptoms:
My nose is running, I still feel nauseous there's pains and itchy tingling feeling around my stomach area and sides of my ribcage and hands and chest, my appetite is gone, my throat burns, and I feel really tired and confused. Does this mean I have damaged some of my organs, what other symptoms should I look out for.
I drink often, and I normally dont get hangovers at all, and when I do they dont last very long and I usually only get a headache.

Binge drinking can cause acute pancreatitis which would probably "knock you to the floor".

its possible. but i doubt it.   you feel that way because you drank a liter of whiskey in less than 24 hrs.    you just have a good hangover.    you are definitely damaging your body though.    drink some gatorade and hopefully you dont have to go to work today.  let this remind you next time not to drink so much.
