Allergic Reaction

[Tilly2]

This morning, whilst sitting at my computer, I began to feel odd. I developed a temperature, my face was burning and the skin on my arms felt 'uncomfortable'. I went upstairs to get dressed and looked in the mirror. My eyelids, forehead and my lips were swollen, my face was blotched with pink, sore areas and I had a rash on both my arms.
I took an antihistamine tablet and within a couple of hours the rash and the swelling had gone.

I had only had two drinks of hot water. Nothing else.

From now on, I am going to have an antihistamine every day. How will I know when I can stop taking them? Just trial and error?

Benadryl is as old as the hills.....but the best.
In my opinion, the less drowsiness as a side effect, the less effective.......just my opinion.
The newer ones certainly have less drowsiness, in my opinion, but not as effective as anti-histaminic actions.
Pirirton is good as is Phenergan.......take your pick
