CPT Ethanolic: Gonna have to call bullshiate on this story. Diabetes does not respond differently to liquor. But your mom does.

No, the article writer just sucks ass at writing an article.
He got a hold of some tainted vodka, and drank methanol. Methanol is metabolized by alcohol dehydrogenase into formaldehyde, which is further metabolized into formic acid. Formic Acid LOVES your optic nerve. It likes to fark it like Lindsey Lohan in a free wet bar hotel. Ethanol competitively inhibits Methanol metabolism by having a higher affinity for ADH than it. So you pee the methanol out rather than turn it into Lindsey Lohan

Exactly. And no one seems to consider the possibility that his students tried to poison him.

Tell me. Dear Storm. Do you perhaps know what we call alternative medicine that works?
Medicine.

Medicine.
we also call it "affordable treatments for people without insurance". Acupuncture and chiropractic work GREAT for chronic pain and won't land you in the poor house. So get off your high horse, Mr. Middle Class

Competitive inhibition of methanol with ethanol is a well-established medical treatment. I'm surprised that even after he tried "sleeping it off" that the treatment still worked. What he needs to do to avoid this in the future is avoid home distilled or crappy alcohol.

The evidence for accupuncture is sketchy at best, and the field is massively overrun with woo about energy fields rather than targeting an obvious biological basis for why it works in some people - the release of endorphins, enkephalons, and endocannabanoids.
Nothing a chiropractor does is any different than what a Physical Therapist would do, for cheaper, and using scientific basis for doing so. Chiropractic "medicine" is based on a late 19th century belief that spinal injury and "subluxations" of the vertebra are responsible for all disease in the human body.

This is NOT "alternative" medicine. This is actual evidence-based scientific medicine. "Alternative" medicine treatment would have been: Have some Ginseng and meditate, which would have ended up with the guy being blind and possibly dead.
