I am allergic to amoxicillian (sp?). Yesterday, I took two pills (don't ask me why :crazy1: ) and in about 20 minutes I started to get the itchy, tingly feeling. I thought, "this can't be happening" I didn't mix it with anything. I hadn't even eaten anything. But sure as chit, in 10 minutes I was in full blown allergic reaction mode. Hives, swelling, itching!!! ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!

So, on top of me feeling like death warmed over - I'm having an allergic reaction. SO, I pop two benadryl and wait....30 minutes, nothing - feeling like a drug addict going through withdrawls. Another 30 minutes and I'm feeling drunk :D still itching and wanting to :weeping: all the while my dogs are looking at me like I have 3 heads!! Finally, 90 minutes later the itching is almost non existant and I'm drifting into a coma. ;)

3 hours later - I'm right as rain!! :thumbsup:

Back to just having a sinus infection and hacking up lovely phlegm and missing all kinds of drama, apparently, on the downlow!!

I should be in Stanton, TX at Trade Days - hours away from a road trip to Snyder, TX with Ranger Mom & stangGirl and whoever else to watch DaHops team play baseball. :( Instead, I'm stuck in Sinton - beautiful day outside, but I can't go out there b/c the wind is blowing crap all over the place. :hairpunk:

Someone send drinks!! :cool:

I also have allergic reactions to Amoxicillan. I take either penicillan or ampicillan for infections. Strange how I can take real penicillan with no side effects, but can't take one of the synthetics. Allergies are weird.

Glad you're feeling better.

If it would make you feel better, I'll take the roadtrip instead.

Actually, no.

West Texas isn't ready for me

hope you get better soon Rita - my oldest is very allergic to pennicllin (sp) and iodine including any shellfish - he can't even be in a boat if we're fishing and using shrimp for bait - his throat swells up and he has a hard time breathing and his eyes swell shut.......

It was a prettty day today but the wind was blowing 30 mph all day - lil44 played in an all day softball tourney in Victoria and the wind was blowing the entire day - my eyes are swollen from watering so much.

Stay inside tomorrow and rest up and hopefully you'll be feeling better by Monday!
