Withdrawal: Quitting as you have done after using alcohol so long may be sign of of other problems. You need blood work and may need to be on vitamins. When you drink for such along time, you don't always eat properly. Your problem may be that simple. But also, alcohol could be completely unrelated so, i suggest you have blood work and ekg especially if you are smoker to, .
