Guest guest Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 Wow, scary! With that bad a reaction, can you maybe get Epi-pens or the like to have on hand just in case, the next time she sees her Doctor?

" granddaughter had bad allergic reaction My 15 year old granddaughter, , has had a bad allergic reaction to hair conditioner. She didn't even use it--all she did was smell it. Her sinuses and eyes are swollen, she has hives on her face and her throat was swelling and affecting her breathing. I quickly gave her Benedryl and her throat and face swelling is finally going down. Whew! She has allergies to other shampoos/conditioners but the reaction has never been this bad before. We are a half hour from help so events like this are very scary. 's mom and dad are both gone and I can't drive so I worry a lot. hugs Sharon This email is a natural hand made product.

Guest guest Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 She's never had a reaction like that before, although she has had hives before. Her dad (my son) is allergic to bees and has to carry an Epi-pen. Yes, it was scary and I think you are right about the Epi-pen.hugs SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.

Guest guest Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 What says goes for me as well. You never know which of the many chemicals caused her reaction and if they're in other products as well. She was lucky but considering how far you are from help, an epi-pen would be a necessity I would think. Mine goes with me everywhere I go. Poor must have been so scared ... hugs, Cait granddaughter had bad allergic reaction My 15 year old granddaughter, , has had a bad allergic reaction to hair conditioner.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 How scary Sharon. I am glad the Benedryl worked.
