Caller got very dizzy the nurse grabbed her. Caller kept on walking, but then could not walk because she kept getting dizzy. Caller did not want to be checked out. The nurse had to get a wheelchair. She had to go through the ER to get out of the building. When she stood up she got dizzy so the nurse insisted that caller go to ER and get checked out. The doctor took blood test and asked caller about dizziness. Caller was given Meclizine for dizziness and the doctor said her blood was ok. She slept a lot.

She does not feel good. Her whole body does not feel good. She has no fever or cough. She just wanted to know if that is something people have had. It has been 10 days. she takes very little medicine like this because she is afraid. Time the Vaccination Was Given: It had to be 12: 30 PM because they closed at 1:00PM.

The worst reaction she had was to CT scan contrast dye. She blew up and they had to give her Benadryl and shots. That happened years ago and she does not have lot number for what she was given or the contrast dye. It was ionic contrast for the cat scan dye. Her mouth has swollen a few times and she is not sure why. She must have eaten something. It happened once after Japanese food. That is when the doctor gave her the EpiPen since she was not sure what did it. She has never taken a flu shot or pneumonia shot.
