epipen

Avatar f tn What is involved in this training session? I have awhile to wait until I attend mine, as there is only one per month, and there is a waiting list to see the nurse who schedules this for me. So I was curious as to what I was being trained in? Aside from learning how to self-inject? Thanks!
4368956 tn?1357406071 my doctors office offered a 15 minute 4d sonogram which would include a dvd plus picture for $150...
Avatar n tn m also allergic to several medications (antibiotics) and my doctor said I might need an epipen when I take them to keep me alive until I get to a hospital. Just about all antibiotics close my throat. But I thought epipens contained epiphenephrine, and was told by a friend that it's bad for those with a heart arrhythmia. Has anyone here with PVCs had to use an epipen for an anaphlactic shock reaction, and if so, was it safe for the heart? Thanks.
Avatar f tn This weekend was horrible, I had two reaction to the water, on friday it was with rain, and had to give me 2 shoots of Epipen, and than I was better but shaking badly from the Epipen, and yesturday just by sweat I did a reaction and again the Epipen but just once, and I didnt even went to the hospital after, his that dangerous if I dont go???? And his it dangerous I have to many shoots?????
Avatar n tn Hello I have severe reactions from insect stings especially bee stings. Its so bad that 1 or 2 stings will put me into anaphylactic shock. I have over 5000+ PVC's a day and the docs say it is a supposed benign condition. (which I do not believe). My wife has never had a pvc or palpitations. Anyways, I have to carry around a epipen everywhere I go. Last year I was working in my back yard and was stung twice, once in the face under the eye and once in my arm.
1285110 tn?1420147378 I've never wanted to use a kettle bell. I've seen some exercises that use momentum with it and the rule of thumb is that a strength training exercise or use of weights is supposed to be a slow, controlled movement. I use hand weights, 3 and 5 pounds. I also use a ball with hand weights. I don't know anyone that has a kettle bell but my sister and I don't think she has ever used it. I'll have to get it from her.
Avatar n tn Hi, welcome to the forum, as such epipen are not available yet. 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. Alternatively, the same drug can be given by the local health care provider or you need to go to emergency department.
Avatar f tn My 7 year old daughter is still very afraid of having a bowel movement on the toilet. She knows when she has to go and will get a pull up out of the closet or wherever I have tried to hide it that day. She is toilet trained for urination. Last week we tried the "no pull up method", but she would go a little in her pants everyday and hold it whenever we made her sit on the toilet. She has prunes every other day at lunch time so she is not constipated, just holding it.
Avatar f tn I'm a 32 year old female, work out at least 4 to 7 days a week, either weight training with my dad, or running at least 4 to 5 days a week, 2 to 6 miles a day since I'm training for another half. I've been trying everything as far as how I eat, and I can't seem to get rid of the belly fat and my butt and thighs seem big to me.
4724796 tn?1361061158 Doctor said cardio is fine and to do stregth training in small doses. 5mins twice a day only 3days out of the week. and no weights over 5lbs. She said as long as you feel good and are healthy it shouldn't do anything to risk the pregnancy. Juust an update to help other mamas who question working out. Still ask your doctor but if your healthy there should be no issues.
410850 tn?1229178711 Excellent news!!! I knew you could do it!! It is different though, doing the first one all by yourself at home, isn't it? And just think, only a week ago you couldn't imagine doing one injection! Hope you continue to feel light sx...
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.
1378566 tn?1286930813 Now they want me to wait for a nurse to come out and teach me how to poke myself? Is it really that hard, I have watched the dvd and read all my info?? Should I wait until atleast Monday to start?? It stated that Monday, Wednesday and Friday's were good days to take it?? That way I would not have to take a shot on the weekends... One more question, I have not been on a steroid? I'm still have severe sensory loss from my waist down? My next doctor appointment is Aug. 2nd..
Avatar f tn You may need an Epipen if it becomes more severe but in the meantime see a physician and buy some Benadryl.
Avatar f tn I have carried an epipen for the last 11 years for my son and Thank God we have not had to use it. But I was wondering if anyone did have an experience like this and had to use an epipen. Or if you have any information on urticaria pigmentosa? ( I know alot about it but I always would like to know more. Please share any information you may have or experiences you incountered.
Avatar f tn Yes, I take Rebif as well and I don't have any injection site problems. I just started 3 weeks ago though. But I take it at night right before I go to sleep. If I do it during the day, I get realllllllly sleepy. Hope everything turns out ok!
572651 tn?1530999357 one of the ads that have been running here lately is the one for MS ACTIVE WELLNESS and theiir DVD. This is probided by one of the pharmas and I have a copy. It is an excellent workout with three levels that everyone can do. It includes a very detailed booklet with photos and explanations of the exercises so you don't even havve to own a dvd player to benefit. It is free, so be sure to click on that link and order one.
1515604 tn?1290539219 I agree with Margy. The pull-ups feel too much like a diaper and never worked for me. I had to buy training pants (which is heavier than regular underwear but still cloth underwear). You can try that to start off with but I like what Margy says about the Super Hero underwear. Let him help you pick out some special underwear with whatever characters he's in to and explain to him that he's a big boy now and doesn't need diapers.
1016751 tn?1253642502 My husband and I are trying to conceive. I was exercising (doing strength training DVD w/ just 5 lb weights) part way into it I started dry heaving. Has anyone else experienced this type of thing before their missed period? It is hot out and I am always sure to drink water during exercise. I know you can't know until you take an HPT and it is too early for that yet by a few days, but I just wanted to know if any one else has experienced this or has heard of it.
