[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think you’re supposed to do it that way - treating only with antihistamines- you’re supposed to use the EpiPen with anaphylaxis even without major airway complications. Benadryl can potentially knock a reaction down but it the reaction can rebound and worsen. At least that’s what doc told me in er. They used massive steroid dose for me done my breathing had improved. - new poster. [/quote] "you’re supposed to use the EpiPen with anaphylaxis even without major airway complications." Really? Did the er doctor say that? I thought that was only used when the airway was closing. What else would the epi help with?[/quote] YES The doctor said that the airway can close quickly if more than one system is involved like your skin and your breathing you use the EpiPen and call 911 For me my airway wasn’t closing, but my lungs were not working properly. Like asthma attack. [/quote]
