Please be careful with any drug you take! 3 years ago Christmas, I took the pill Imitrex for a migraine headache. 20 minutes later I was in
Anaphylactic Shock!! I coded 3 times, stopped breathing, was on full life support for 5 days, I was frozen (my body core temp lowered, trying stop the damage that was happening). I aspirated, was on 17 different meds, a central line was inserted in my neck. Total time spent in the hospital was 16 days!! I was like a stroke victim. My mind was a mess. I was in therapy for 8 months learning how to count, write checks, remembering names of people and items. Only 20% of the people who go into Anaphylactic Shock this severe, survive it. Guess the Good Lord wasn't finished with me yet
So, please watch out for the meds!! Who knew I was allergic to a simple pill for headache!
I still have mind problems LOL. Like remembering words of what things are, I mark off each day on the calendar, my house is full of sticky notes, reminding me of things. Just look over me on spelling and trying get what I want too say on post. I wasn't always like this.
