I'm curious - alcohol, even several drinks, does not trigger a CH for me during a cycle. How common is that?

uncommon, but not unheard of.
Several folks on here can drink in cycle. I am not one of them.

Overall it seems alcohol is a sure fire trigger for episodics but not so much for chronics.
Damn chronics.
Chronics suck.

The beast loves alcohol. It gives him strength. One time I tryed to see if i could get drunk enough to pass out and not have pain. I was wrong, WAY wrong. Your lucky gpolma.

Any alcohol really messes me up when I am in cycle. Can't even take communion at church.

One sip off of one beer will give me a kip 10 every time when I'm in cycle.
Out of cycle no problem. On the up side, I don't develope a tolerance so I'm a cheap drunk...lol...

Alcohol triggers me in cycle of course, but sometimes does, sometimes doesn't out of cycle. Volume and what I am drinking is a factor. Red wine, beer, and schnapps, are sure fire triggers (while out of cycle) if I don't mask beforehand with cafergot which is effective.
MSG, any time, in anything, triggers 100%, no matter what I might take to try to mask it.

ex pat asia - I feel for you on the out of cycle thing. I was a wine collector for years before the onset of CH a few years ago, and that would have really compounded my misery.

I'm a chronic and alcohol has no effect either way.

In cycle I usually get hurt real bad after any alcohol, but sometimes you've got live life and throw caution to the wind.
But I must admit I only adopted that idea after I found O2 and imitrex.
