It seems like everyone has a problem with whatever it is that bothers them, not necessarily whiskey:)

Everyone is different. I pretty much don't drink because my body just doesn't feel right the next day... and I'm not talking about a hangover, but more of a sick feeling that my body doesn't appreciate.

I have severe problems with, especially whiskey, but also with alcohol in general. Alcohol is in my opinion devastating for UC.

Agreed, everyone is different. Could also be the pain meds in your body mixing with the alcohol. We all have to be careful in what we drink because of some of the medications that we take; it's a conversation that we need to have with our doctors. My GI told me that I was permitted to drink on 6-mp and all the biologicals within moderation (like everything).

I could always tolerate Bourbon better than other liquors but it is my drink of choice so I drink it more often than the other liquors.

Red Wine never bothered me either. I like the wine drunk feeling compared to the liquor drunk feeling but for a drink or 2 I'd like the taste of bourbon.

The carbonation in Beer is wrecking me right now; I can't even drink a half a beer without feeling horrible were I stop drinking the beer.

With me, it sometimes seems to help with the symptoms. I have noticed a few times already that I start to have diarrhea then some alcohol (like a good glass of whiskey or a couple of strong beers) can stop it.

It happened again a few days ago. Over a couple of days I was developing diarrhea again. When it got really bad, had a full glass of whiskey and, bam, over. Not even a bm the next day (which has only happened 3 times last year!). Each time this worked, I did some sports before and then had the alcohol on an empty stomach. My guess is that it kills of some bad bacteria.
