When in doubt, go to the ER!
ION, I did not realize that Bactrim is a sulfa drug. That's good to know, because while I am allergic to most antibiotics, I can take sulfa drugs (so far).
I know, world in peril and we have to work together. This is my last office romance, I'll tell you that.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I think it is both things: If benadryl helps get it under control then there is time to wait. If not, GO.
bonnie, please pay attention to your breathing tho. If it gets worse at all, you need to go.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I don't know if this helps, but when I was in the ER on Wednesday for my allergic reaction, and mentioned that if it hadn't been for the throat swelling, I probably would have waited to go to urgent care in the morning, the instant response was "oh no, you are in the right place". Plus then they gave me very clear instructions that if it happens again I need to go to the ER, even if urgent care is open.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
What everyone else said - I hope the Benedryl brings the rash down!! Other "call 911" allergy symptoms are lips tingling and tongue swelling. Is there someone nearby who can come hang with you for a while, or at least check on you periodically?

Always Anti-fascist!
I developed a sulfa allergy as an adult. Itchy hives, yuck.

The status is NOT quo.
Has anyone heard from Bonny?

No. I came here just now hoping she'd posted again.

I just got out of the movies, and I came here to check on Bonny too. I hope she is doing ok.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
This is why we need Buffista Island.
