Hi! I am Anne (42) married to Terry (38). It'll be 11 years on May 12

(the Fishing Opener here in Minnesota). We are proud parents of 1 daughter

Montanna (8 1/2yrs) and in the 3rd grade. It took a fertility clinic,

injectable drugs (both before and during my pregnancy) and an act of God to

get our Miss Montanna.

I have a long medical history with most of the " bad stuff " starting when I

was 22 years old when I had my 1st allergic reaction and I started at

the top with anaphylaxis - to compazine (extrapyrmidal effects quickly

turned into full out anaphylaxis)

I used to be a paramedic until my allergies got so bad I was a liability

instead of an asset to the ambulance. There is a better intro in the " My

Story " section of my caringbridge page.

I am having a lot of pain in my legs right now and am probably on crutches

for the rest of my life with very few options for pain control because of

my 74 drug allergies plus other things.
