I almost died on Labor DAy

[dreamyxo]

Wow that's crazy.  My cousin died last summer after getting stung by a bee.  I'm terrified of bees I've never been stung so I don't know if I'm allergic.  I try to avoid bees at all cost.

Thank God that you survived that ordeal.  Lesson to all of us is to be careful and be aware of our reaction to things.

after we got back from our bbq  with my friends and family. I crawled into bed when I got stung by a red wasp. I am deathly allergic to them. we keep benadryl in the house the liquid for our 15 year old daughter she cant swallow pills and the pills for me. i was about to reach for the pills when my instinct said no grab the liquid now and take it. I did. well my wasp sting when I went to the doctor yesterday was one of the worst they ever seen so much so I was one of the first ones to be seen two nurses and a doctor came out to look at it. the vemon was so bad my leg from where I was stung was turning blue. they thought I might have had to go to the hospital or I might have died from the sting. I told the doctor what I did the split second I was stung I took the liquid benadryl . he said because you did that is what saved your life. I didn't go into anaphalsis as a result nor did I need a hosptial. I got s steriod shot and have two take two different histamine blockers benadryl and pepcid ( yes the reflux medicine) it contains a histamine blocker. they have an H1 blocker and an H2 blocker due to the severity I have to take both every 6 hours. this is the second time the first instance was a deadly allergy to nutra sweet my husband and I at that time were not even 3 months married. on that I did go into anaphylsis three times and in and out of consciousness. I was very pale white, my oxygen was low, I was very weak for several months that my husband had to carry me to church and back home. He pumped me full of benadryl then also.  both times my husband and daughter came close to losing me. no I'm not over dramatic the doctor literally said I could have died due to the severity my husband could have been a widower that is how bad. God told me to take the liquid benadryl both times that saved my life. I am carrying both histamine blockers at all times.

If you are that allergic why do you not have the epi pen?

[jkhanson]

Katie, I cannot imagine how scary that was for you and your family. 

I am glad that you are prepared for such incidents as a wasp sting and that you listened to your instincts to take the Liquid benadryl.  No doubt, that liquid did save your life.

[nannycoe1]

Sorry that is scary, maybe you should get an epi pen.

[btajpb3]

Years ago while out hiking I walked up on a fellow hiker who was in panic mode as he rifled through his pack looking for an epipen after being stung. It was quite an eye opener. The worst part was realizing that without the pen I was useless and could not have helped.

[Ittai]

Sorry to hear! Glad to hear and see that you are ok now!

[nmbrown863]

Oh my goodness I am glad you are okay! I worry about bees, wasps, etc because in my whole 28 years I have never been stung. I could be allergic and not even know it.

[pkrahmer]

wow! glad you are ok The lord was looking out for you.
You are in mythoughts and prayers that you stay healthy.

[pmagalei]

So sorry to hear of your near death experience. I am glad you have taken the liquid B. I have a son who has allergies especially for be stings. He has an Epi Pen but he hasn't used it yet. Hopefully you get better in time. Take care!

[ghunter]
