About Treatment for Anaphylaxis

I was in the hospital for a kidney stone this past week.  The nurses were so wonderful yet surprisingly clueless about the protocol for Anaphylaxis.  They wanted my to have an epi-pen on the table next to me.  What they did not get in my case the first thing I go for is my nausea medicine.  The intestinal pain is really severe in my case.  Nevertheless, I think the nurses should know that they have epinephrine they could put in my IV and not expect me to jab myself when I am at the hospital.  I found out later that I was staying in the Ortho unit.

Number 44

I wonder if Guinness Book has a section for this.  I had my 44th Anaphylaxis yesterday.  It is so hard not knowing why.  I stopped my antibiotics just in case they are causing it.  I hope it doesn't kill me.   It is frustrating.  There are so many things I want to do with the rest of my life.  It is really holding me back!
