Clinical narrative: 1-2 hrs later - wheezing - (inhaler not helping). 10-12-12 - Woke up arm sore to move - noticed red lump - hot to touch - size of silver dollar. 10-13-12 - Lump even larger - 7 inches wide & 5 inches down called Emergency Dr on call who advised me to take BENADRYL. Before started taking BENADRYL on late 10-13-12 my head & body started getting really hot also (like arm). The BENADRYL worked great. (Instantly was able to breathe) no more wheezing & redness & swollenness started to come down. On 10-15-12 stopped BENDARYL but wheezing came back & had to start it again. Had to take it on & off for about 2 weeks in order to breathe. 10-22-12 My lips & face (eyes) swelled up (but not tongue) & I started getting sick - nose - not able to breathe thru nose. Now 11-10-2012 I'm very sick w/ allergy symptoms, watery eyes, runny nose, etc. miserable. Haven't gotten out of bed much in last month. And am afraid to continue taking BENADRYL constantly since it is the only thing that relieves allergic reactions, so don't want to become immune to it so that it doesn't work for me in future if I have a serious allergic reaction to something. I feel that they have injected me with straight poison. I want to dissolve it (get it out of me). I know I am hypersensitive to most medications. It's like they injected me with some kind of toxin. And I'm still feeling the effects of it. Has it did this to other people? I feel they should at least compensate for all the BENADRYL I have had to buy.
