Re: [insectstings] Re: Sarah's Insect Sting Anaphylaxis Experience - wow!

David,

Thanks for your response. In addition to your epi-pen did your doctor
recommend anything else? My doctor recommended during the bee season I take a
10MG of Claritin each morning. Then in the event I get stung again drink two
ounces of Benadryl call 911 right away even if I feel fine then if needed inject
myself. I have to carry two pens, and the Benadryl and Claritin with me at all
times. He also said I have to have a Medic Alert Bracelet. Another thing I did
not mention in my intro letter I also had temporary paralysis that lasted for a
few hours. I am really instrested in learning more about all of this.

Thanks Again, Sarah
