2017 - Anaphylactic Episode 50

NOT AGAIN!
On Tuesday September 12, I went into a weird allergic response to something and was having severe stomach pain.  The stomach issues started the day before and kept me up all night.  Then the next day I knew it was necessary to call an ambulance.  All the symptoms of Anaphylaxis were present except my throat was clear and I did not need the epi-pen at first. 

It was a mild response compared to some of the others.  The doctors and nurses provided care and I went home.  Later in the day it was coming back!  I went back to the hospital fully aware that this was one of those that was going to be slow and painful.  After an hour of waiting for a bed I was able to get the care needed to stop my pain and nausea.  We went home.  

In about 2 hours at home I started to flush and itch.  My throat was closing.  So, I used my epi-pen, took some Benadryl and some more allergy pills then waited it out.  Wednesday, I stayed home from work to recover from the foggy brain from all the meds.  

Today, Thursday I am back at work.  I still have some brain fog from all of the meds. Nevertheless, it is nice to be feeling better.  So, in thinking this through I realized that it must have been the new Probiotic I took on Sunday.  All of my symptoms point to it.  I threw it in the trash.  Hopefully, this will be the last one for a while.
