Common Questions and Answers about Using epipen for fun

epipen

Avatar n tn I have some serious allergies and often they close my throat. I live 20 minutes from the nearest doctor or hospital. Until recently I always felt safe because I could use an epipen and that would give me time to get help. But now I have been diagnosed with about 8000 PVCs a day, and was told by another sufferer that I shouldn't use an epipen anymore, that it's not a good idea for those with PVCs.
645800 tn?1466860955 After I was stabilized they sent me home with an RX for an EpiPen. But 4 hours later I was back in the ER with a second reaction to that bee sting that was just as bad as the first one. This time they kept me for about 8 hours just to make sure I didn't have yet another episode. You can just imagine the nightmare it was with my insurance company when the hospital billed them for 2 ER visits on the same day for the same thing.
Avatar n tn Is Epipen available in India? If not, what is the alternative emergency treatment for anaphylactic shock commonly used?
Avatar f tn Hi, welcome to the forum, Epipen delivers a measured dose of epinephrine (also known as adrenaline) using autoinjector technology, most frequently for the treatment of acute allergic reactions to avoid or treat the onset of anaphylactic shock. In certain cases it can be used to stop local bleeding. Epinephrine is known to act on the uterus through beta 2 receptors and can cause relaxation of the uterus. At term, it can prevent the contraction and delay the labor.

That day I was rushed back into the er and bum rushed by 5 different nurses and a doctor, one nurse asking me which arm I want the epipen in? I am like Idc I can't breath stab me! ) I almost died that day, and now I have been having panic attacks almost every other day.
Avatar f tn The endocrinologists refused to discuss any other kind of medication, and I have to stop Synthroid immediately.Sad for me, I remember how great it was for the in a long time, I was the same person as the 4 1/2 year ago.
1201433 tn?1328997637 Whatever you do whether you decide to treat yet or not make sure you WATCH and wait ... don't just do the wait part. At stage 2 you still have some wiggle room time to decide what is best. Do you have a good support group around you of family and friends? Good insurance? Time off if you need it? There are lots of things to consider. Myself I was geno1A and 1B both and already stage 3 so I didn't think I had time to wait. Treatment is long and hard but it's doable....
1605559 tn?1314793078 So, I felt like I was using all three women just for sex to keep my mind off my broken engagement. I had to take time to heal but now I'm ready to re-enter the "game". However, there is the little devil on my shoulder that says contact all three of them and just see what they say, have some fun, no big deal. But, I think its bad karma so the little angel on the other shoulder says go with trying to form a true relationship and don't make it all about sex anymore.
Avatar f tn The other day my friend had a major asthma attack that almost sent him to the ER-- he thankfully had an epipen nearby. He thinks what triggered it was a laxative (sennosides in pill form) he took a couple of hours before. Is this even possible? And if so, should he be avoiding all things laxative? I wouldn't be asking these questions here, but he is too stubborn to go to a doctor like he should.
Avatar f tn For pollen, dog and cat hair try taking some antihistamine like Zyrtec (works well for me). For the food allergies, you just have to avoid them. Try Googling some gluten-free recipes.
645800 tn?1466860955 I am very allergic to bee and wasp stings to the point that I can die from a sting within about 1/2 hour or so. As a result I am suppose to carry an EpiPen with me at all times ( especially since there are a lot of wasps and bees around my home ). But despite this the couple of times I have been stung I have never been able to give myself the much needed shot. And to make matter worse I always have 2 reactions to each sting.

Avatar n tn I was rushed to emergency, given benedryl and sent home 4 hours later. I got an Epipen for I was told, although rare, that I could have a secondary reaction within the next week. Sure enough November 5 I had a second reaction (bi-phasic reaction). I was given the epipen by my mother for I passed out and couldn't give it myself. Back to the hospital.

Avatar f tn Get tested for allergies. It sounds like you have ingested or been exposed to something that is an allergen (to you). You may need an Epipen if it becomes more severe but in the meantime see a physician and buy some Benadryl.
Avatar f tn @tiffygreen1230 from what I've heard/read, that's super beneficial for your baby! Go you! Registries are a way to let people know what you need/would like for your baby. I'm also using mine as just a way to remind myself - there's so much to buy, I'm worried I'll forget something! Mine isn't going on any baby shower invitations or anything like that but if people ask I'll tell them where to find it.
