My dad had a really bad allergic reaction to a sandwich he ate from Giant today. He’s had allergic reactions before, I think to certain glutens in bread and pizza crust, but the one he had earlier today was the worst yet! I heard him coughing from upstairs and I think I heard him wheezing at some point! I think it was borderline Anaphylaxis! And to top it off, I happened just minutes before I had to get ready for work! I was really close to dialing 911! Thankfully, my mom gave him Benadryl and everything stopped. One of the benefits of having a nurse as a mom!
I really hope he plans on seeing a doctor very soon about it, but he’s just so stubborn! He doesn’t think it’ll happen again soon, but I think the next time it happens, it’ll be even worse! If that happened to me, I’d schedule an appointment ASAP!
