Spending all day in the hospital

[diva]

did the blood tests come back while you were at the hospital?
no anemia?

what's your blood pressure?

could be left over stuff from the flu maybe.

^ Yeah they did. They took second ones just in case.

I talked to my doctor yesterday, everything came back fine, they said I probably just have fluid in my ears that's screwing up my equilibrium.

I go back to his office tomorrow to get my ears checked again and maybe get some antibiotics.

How about having a reaction to some Benadryl, hitting up the emergency room, sitting 3.5 hours for some lacky resident to tell me "that's normal", shoving another Benadryl in my hand, sending me home to have an anaphylactic shock.

"911 Emergency"

"My daughter is super swollen and cannot breathe"

"Ambulance is on its way ma'am"

Dx: Allergic to Benadryl :(

Once I took Benadryl with carrot juice and my face got all swollen, broke out with hives all over my body, couldn't breath. I called "911" and told them "I think I'm dieing", had enough time o say my address and fell on the floor. Next thing I remember was waking up in a ambulance and before I got to the hospital I felt better and the swelling went down and the hives started dissapearing.

The doctor was like you're allergic to Benadryl, who told you to take it, I was like my family doctor.
