So how DID you manage to make it? Did the medical folks turn around in time?<<<<<<<<<
Yes, I couldn't speak but I banged on the table and they turned around and ran me to the ER, across the hall. I got epinephrine immediately, which makes one feel kind of lousy, but the alternative was worse, needless to say.
I remember my mom had been sitting in the waiting room and saw them go flying by with a person she totally did not recognize due to the swelled face and head. If I had everyday allergies, I'd be carrying several of the Epi-Pens, I think.
Twice I've caught doctors during tests starting to inject radiographic dye, which is what I'm allergic to. They obviosly can't read big red letters all over my medical charts.
Don't feel bad. My wife pretends not to recognize me when she thinks I have a swollen head. :-)

Bring along and introduce your lawyer during your next tests. The doctors will suddenly get VERY careful. :-)
Cheers!
