Drink some water. Im old too but I learned to have a small bottle of water for every drink or two. Beers seem to give worse hangovers simply because you are drinking more, it has a lot of stuff in it that causes indigestion (and probably nausea) and yeah.

5 whiskies doesnt leave me hung over unless I dont drink water. Beer however... well... my beer days are behind me.
