If you are passing: out after drinking, your foot drop is not the most important thing to be worried about. You need to take a serious look at how much and how often you are drinking. Drinking till you pass out, is a sign of possible addiction to alcohol. If anyone in your family has had problems with drugs or alcohol, you may be at high risk. Talk to your physician and get evaluated for alcohol addiction.
