Hi Need4,
What you describe is , in my experience, quite common. I see you have seen your Doc, and that is good.
For me, the "foggy" head lasted several months, my depression lifted after about 3 months, and has not returned. My memory ( short term) is still not too good, but it got worse before it got better LOL
I was lucky not to have too many physical symptoms, I had the shakes, and a huge thirst. I also have an Immune system muscle related disease, which was caused by my continual assault on it , over 30 odd years, I too drank 10+ beers a night , and whatever else was lying around LOL
I did not have medications , so my effects may have lasted longer than yours will.
Choccy milkshakes helped my cravings
Just dont pick up 1 drink for 1 day ..................
