A member asked:
What is wrong if you experience memory loss after drinking alcohol?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Brain toxicity: The short answer is that it means that the amount of alcohol you are drinking is disrupting one of the most important functions of the brain. Basically you are disrupting your brain's ability to store memory because of the sedating effects of alcohol. It is one sign that you might be drinking too much.
