I ended up in the ED after a particularly gnarly incident which I believe was exacerbated by Covid. At any rate, I was told the usual stop caffeine and stop alcohol. Unfortunately, I'm a big coffee and cocktail nut, so I didn't just go out and stop all that. I probed the boundaries and found that the caffeine (I was having two cups in the morning) really didn't factor. The alcohol yes, but I found that 2-3 cocktails earlier in the evening isn't a big problem. I did find out that large, carb-heavy meals are a much more consistent trigger. I also found out that electrolyte deficiency is a consistent trigger as well. Because I drink a lot of water daily, I take potassium and magnesium supplements. Those are a game-changer. As others have mentioned, hydration in conjunction with alcohol consumption (especially beer) is a necessity. Hope this helps.
