Thank you for your question. It sounds that it could be delirium tremens that is caused after a long period of drinking and stopping abruptly with history of heavy use of alcohol. Most common symptoms could be agitation, irritability and confusion. Other symptoms could be numbness, chest pain, feeling nervous and stomach pain. Although without being able to examine you, it will be quite difficult to provide you any precise opinion here. Therefore, I encourage you to see your personal physician for further evaluation of your individual case. Hope this helps.
