885829 tn?1240864261 Okay for the past month I've been having an allergic reaction to something at first it was hives, then smelly sweat, blurred vision, and now dizzyiness but it only happens on weekdays really I dont have them on weekends only when i go to school. I'm on 5 antimisamines a day and I went to 3 different doctors and they don't know what it is.
Avatar f tn I am personally allergic to apples and I experience hives and a itchy mouth and tongue if I eat them.
Avatar f tn This morning he got up and had a swollen tongue and it was hard for him to swallow. He took a dose of Benadryl and another dose and hour later and again 5 hours after that. Not just the tongue itelf was swollen but under the tongue as well. He had a hive on his arm also. The doctor keeps thinking it's a food allergy of some sort. He had fries, applsauce, carrots and steak amrinated in Kraft Italian dressing last night for dinner....nothing out of the ordinary different. Any suggestions???
Avatar n tn I just read your question about the possible allergic reaction to Keflex. I had previously taken Keflex for mononucleosis at the age of 18 and and other things during my early 20's and never had a problem. A few years later when i was 28 I took it again. I had a terrible reaction. I had very large raised hives that started on the tops of my thighs, inside my arms and up my neck. My eyes were swollen and breathing became a task. I double dosed benendryl and went to ER.
1221035 tn?1301000508 I also have had anaphylactic reactions to wasp stings, but not bee stings. Each and every time you are stung and you are exposed to that foreign protein, you risk an anaphylactic reaction. Many allergies are "learned" antibody responses. I am sensitive to some foreign proteins, but not others. Thankfully, I am not sensitive to beef, chicken, fish or pork.
Avatar f tn I am highly allergic to cinnamin and accidentally ate some. Took some benedryl and went to sleep.

Avatar m tn When allergens cross-link the IgE molecules degranulation is induced and mediators such as histamine and other vasoactive amines are released and produce the allergic reactions. Diagnosis of allergies is done by skin ***** or patch tests and confirmation is done by blood tests like RAST. The most important treatment for allergies is avoidance of the allergen.
649926 tn?1297657780 DJ is very allergic to Baclofen and someone else on the thread said they were allergic and Lulu said that she just started on Baclofen. I am on Baclofen and they keep increasing the dose. So for anyone on Baclofen I/we would benefit from you sharing your allergies or side effects from Baclofen with us.

Avatar n tn Many doctors do require their patients to go off H2 blockers (a specific type of antihistamine. H2 blockers inclue Zantac (ranitidine) and Pepcid. I cannot recall the chemical in Pepcid at the moment. Another questionable med is Elavil (amitriptyline). It is an antidepressant but has some antihistamine qualities. Every doctor is different on these meds. Many don't want to cause issues with going off of these meds.
Avatar n tn I 'm not sure if the alcohol s the cause, I read an interesting blog about applying alcohol to the skin. 09/12/2006: Michael from South Africa writes: "Half each 90% Alcohol and distilled water. And Fastum Gel a non steroidal anti inflammatory. Fixed my shingles in a week. Blisters all dried and healing. Pain still there in the nerve. Good news!" But it is not recommended to DRINK alcohol while on shingles drug therapy. Hope this helps!
Avatar n tn This is because famotidine works at the H2 receptor and allergic reactions are mediated via the H1 receptor. Though both are histamine receptors, their mechanism of activation and agonists are different, to a large extent. Pepcid AC can reduce acidity caused by alcohol consumption. Antihistamines cannot reverse the effects of an allergic reaction; they can only suppress any further allergic reaction.
Avatar f tn t remember the name, Zyrtec, Xyzal and Ranitidine. I have changed my shampoo to Neutrogena, stopped using hairspray and use Neutrogena lotion. Nothing is working. Do you have any ideas what this could be it is driving me crazy.
187666 tn?1331173345 Extended family member (in-law) started her chemo today (kind of). Got her port put in, they started her with antihistamines, anti-nausea, blood cell replenishers. Then when they started the actual chemo she turned bright red, her back hurt and she had trouble breathing. They stopped the chemo and pushed normal saline. They're going to try again tomorrow with a synthetic version. First off I thought all chemo was synthetic, not exactly all natural.
Avatar n tn I'm soon to have double knee replacement. I am allergic anti-inflammatory very allergic. Even in the most distant of that type of drug. My Dr prescribed Tramadol and he assures me it's okay, It wont affect me, with a reactoin . Is that true? He wont give me anything afraid I'll get addicted to them(the opiate)I'm scared of Tramadol And I wont be given anything else until I try the Tramadol to actually see if I get do get a reaction.
Avatar f tn I had an angiogram done 3 weeks ago and about a week ago I started being very itchy in that area now a week later I am itchy all over and have hives. Could this be from the angiogram? I also had an angio-seal put in. It is driving me crazy. what can i do?
Avatar n tn I've had reactions to Celestone and Cortisone. My reactions both times happened about 12 to 14 hours later. Creepy crawly skin started that evening.The last cortisone shot landed me in the ER with my throat closing hives, ringing in my ear, heart palpatations. ER doc and family doc suggested I get allergy tested. (The cartalidge is worn out in my knee cortisone is the Standard of Care.) Allergy Doc tested me with the scratch test for Depomedrol and lidocaine which is usually with the shot.
