Guest guest Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Hello All, Well, I just got home from the emergency room due to my self desensitizing. What a jerk! Started fine. 1/2 baby - then 1 baby- all was fine - felt fine - so I went to 1 1/2 baby aspirin -------- all hell broke out!! My throat closed - my face was swollen and on fire. My wife drove me to the hospital (5 minutes away). They took me right in - shot me up with an epi - medrol - pepsid - and I stayed for hours while I recovered. - Went home with mega persriptions for more stinking steroids - and others. I will now wait (as I shoul have) for my insurance company to give me permission to do this in the hospital as highly recommended by most. Never did I think I would have such a violent reaction from 1 1/2 BABY ASPIRIN!!! So, as you all know - the prednesone makes me shakey, erritable, and it get pimples on my nose, and blood spots on my hands. GOD! I hate this!!! I'll let you know if I ever get the chance to desensitise in the protection of a doctor. I was even thinking of going to that SCRIPP clinic in California. The cost of the air fare is surely cheaper than the over $5,000 out of pocket expenses I had in 2007. Thanks, Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
