[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] My son is anaphylactically allergic to nuts, and if someone had served me something with nuts by mistake, I would have chills down my spine. This is how people die. This is how my son ended up with a major anaphylactic reation one day when a restaurant served my husband a dish with peanuts by mistake, and he gave my son a taste of it, thinking it did not contain nuts. So I understand his fear. Sadly his fear revealed him to be a racist bully. Taking a tone and reminding the server that certain mistakes can be deadly would have been sufficient. [/quote] Mistakes happen- I’m assuming if someone is that allergic you always have an epipen and Benadryl on hand.[/quote] Epipens are not foolproof and can trigger serious cardiac side effects. Also, there is a rebound effect after they given, which can lead to a second, even more severe anaphylactic reaction a few minutes to a few hours later, which is why hospitalization after an Epipen injection is sometimes necessary. You can't just walk around with an Epipen and think "mistakes can happen". No, you can still die. I am not excusing this man's reaction, BTW. I am simply placing it into the context that it was rooted in fear for his son. [/quote]
