Hi
Looking for some advice as i think my drink may have been spiked on Saturday night.
Me and my partner had a few friends round our house on Saturday night for a housewarming party and i had two glasses of wine and ended up throwing up and passing out (not saying i'm a big drinker but I've drank more than two glasses of wine in the past and been fine). My partner and my best friend had to put me to bed and stayed with me all night as they were worried about me.
My stomach is still very sore today and i still feel sick.
Because everyone there was supposed to be friends i don't want to believe that someone could have done that to me in my own house.
Is it possible it was definitely spiked or could there be any other reason for this happening to me?
Any advice is much appreciated.

Obviously something was amiss, but it doesn't necessarily mean your drink was spiked. For one thing ask yourself why someone might even want to do it. Were you the only one to drink from that bottle of wine? Had you eaten something which might not have reacted well. And, I ask because I've had similar experiences in the past, were you smoky waccy baccy? There could be any number of causes and explanations.
Or had they eaten very little, meaning the alcohol drunk would have had a much greater effect?
im not saying it definitely was i dont know for sure, i was the only one drinking from that bottle of wine. It could have been something id eaten but hadnt made anything id not eaten before and i dont touch drugs at all.
Id eaten all day and had dinner before i started drinking as i wont drink if i havent eaten.
Yes i have heard of a sickness bug and id felt fine all day.
my partner told me i was saying to him that i couldn't see and then i passed out. Ive never had that with a sickness bug before.
Why are you even considering that a friend would do such a spiteful and dangerous thing?
I dont think "not being able to see" sounds like being spiked, unless you meant blurred.
Anyone else of these friends experience anything similar? And how long have you known them - any practical jokers in amongst them?
Whether you'd felt fine all day is neither here or there. Any sickness has to start at some time. Also if you were the only one to drink from that bottle of wine there could be every chance the wine was to blame.
I agree that 2 glasses of wine shouldn't make you blind drunk -- it's no more than an average person would drink over dinner. But I'd say the chances of it being spiked are fairly low considering a) they were all friends, and b) what did the person gain from it? Your partner was with you all night.
ETA: If you're really concerned and convinced you've been drugged, then get down to the doctor's for a blood test. It might not be too late to find whatever it is in your system. It's the only way to put your mind at rest if you're very worried.
Also have you had that wine before? Is it new or possibly cheap, I'm only asking as some wines can have some nasty ingredients an possibly you didn't react well to them. You might have just had an allergy to the wine.
If you still feel poorly after a couple of days pop to the doctors and see what they say
i think it was blurred vision that i meant but as i cant remember my partner talking to me and putting me to bed im going off what i was saying to him.
I havent known them long but my partner has known them a few years.
It probably was just something i ate or a bug or it could have been the wine itself.
Also im not saying they drugged my drink or anything they could have put some other alcohol in it without me knowing as a joke and thats what made me sick and pass out.
I just wanted some advice as ive been so confused about what happened.
Sorry if that's a bit blunt, but adults spiking each others drinks for a laugh sounds far fetched.
I've been affected after very little alcohol because I was totally knackered beforehand and I really can hold my drink.
I can assure you 2 glasses of wine does not result in me being legless i have drank and i wasnt knackered
Then you conclude that someone deliberately put a substance in your drink?
No that was just a possibility as other people have replied there are a few things it could have been but having experienced my best friend being spiked by my partners brothers so called friend and me having pretty much the same reaction as she did the thought crossed my mind and hers as well.
Ill never know for sure what it was unless the doctors can pick up anything.
I'm sure people sometimes do that (spike your drink). Maybe they think it will cheer someone up - it doesn't - if you put things into you body without knowing what they are then you tend to have strange results. I'd say the most common spike is ecstacy (other than vodka).
If I even have one pint of a certain lager the night goes bad - and yet some of my so called friends still swap it in without telling me. I've started culling friends now.
Might easily be that
I'm suspicious when I get a huge high followed by two days of lows - or an anger outburst (that'll be the wifebeater which i cannot ever drink)
I'd always look to the most common reasons first, illness etc... I know in my case, the fact I had one drink, had memory loss, and apparently had to be virtually carried out the place made it pretty clear cut.
I have looked at the possibility of illness and other things but i know for sure that i only had to glasses of wine as i was still on my first glass of wine and still sober when my best friend arrived at my house as she had travelled down from essex to stay the weekend and i left the room for about 10-15 mins as i was upstairs with her showing her the room and talking to her, we then went downstairs i finished the glass of wine id left and then poured another one and drank that, it was after that i started to feel unwell and then was sick and passed out later on.
It is possible that in the 10-15 mins i was out of the room that someone did something to my drink.
Surely if these people are your friends then you should know whether you can trust them or not?
Melanie, if you are feeling better now then I would try and forget this unpleasant experience and put it down to bad luck
You will never know if someone tampered with your drink or not so you cannot openly accuse anyone, and it could just as easily of been due to a stomach bug.
The lesson learnt here is to guard your drink at all in times at future to ensure you are always safe
