because I see it. I read an obituary yesterday of a musician.

He drank himself to death and didn’t make 60.

The article was quite frank as to the cause of his demise. ” He also suffered from Cardiomyopathy and this too.

Both are the result of drinking too much.

History and Physical

Wernicke encephalopathy should be suspected in any patient with chronic alcohol abuse or any form of malnutrition and any of the following: acute altered mental status, ophthalmoplegia, ataxic gait, delirium, and hypotension. The classic triad of Wernicke encephalopathy is altered mental status, ataxic gait, and ophthalmoplegia. The diagnosis is made based on clinical presentation, and a definitive diagnosis is complicated as the clinical triad may not be present in up to 90% of patients.
