I did the same thing. In my case I held onto so much fluid that I was bloated. Like clock work at about 3 days without alcohol I'd sweat and wake up soaking wet. You can tell the amount of fluid by pressing your skin or finger nails. The more white you see the more fluid you have. One thing that was suggested and helped me was to drink plenty of water. This will help flush the chemicals like sodium that hold fluid. Like others mentioned you'll get through it. Don W
