Cherie I totally agree with you on this. Has no-one heard of anaphylaxis (as in cardiac arrest) from drug reactions?

All I can say is listen to your body. It's best to take heed now while adverse symptoms are not severe, rather than have them build up to a full blown anaphylactic reaction.

Please don't become a statistic barb. Please listen to what your body and your doctor have to say.

I'm sorry that what I'm saying is probably not what you want to hear, but some-one has to be the big bad wolf and tell it like it is.

I'm not a horrid person barb. I'm saying this because I care!
