Feeling after drinking alchohol

I noticed for several occasions now that 2-3 days after getting moderately drunk I feel weak as if I have slight fever but I have none. Anybody knows what could possibly cause this?

You could be suffering from an allergic reaction to the alcohol or even dehydration from it  Given that you have this perhaps it's the best reason ever to not over do with alcohol consumption.  If you still have it without getting drunk, then it's most likely to be allergic reaction.  The possible dehydration can be determined sooner by consuming an increased fluid intake the following day/s after having been drunk and see if you have the same reaction.

I have had this myself in my younger years when I would drink. The alcohol passes through your organs and they have to work double time to filter the waste and alcohol, thus making you feel bad for awhile because of this process.

I say lay off drinking for a few weeks, but if you must drink, eat well before consuming, drink plenty of water or even Pedialyte to restore electrolytes after drinking. Little things like this help your body feel much better in time!
