Symptoms of Allergic Reactions

Hello again, everyone. Please remember my disclaimer from my last two posts!

I'd like to go over a few symptoms of allergic reactions. This is probably not a whole list, but it's a start. Once again, feel free add other reactions in the comment section on this post so others can know what to look for.

Flushed face
Hives or rash
Red and/or itchy skin
Swelling of eyes, face, tongue, lips, throat
Trouble breathing, speaking or swallowing
Distress
Faintness
Paleness
Weakness
Cramps
Diarrhea
Vomiting
Drop in blood pressure
Loss of consciousness
Anxiousness
Sense of doom
Rapid heartbeat

The last three are the symptoms I experience when I am toxic on soy products. I feel like a basket case when this happens.

If you have any one of these symptoms when you are exposed to an allergen, please take precautions and do what you have to do to get better! Don't wait! Get help! Your life may depend on it! Also, educate others on what to look for in your particular case. If necessary, let them know if you carry an Epi-pen and tell them where to find it and how to use it.

I have still been watching carefully. With loads of luck and the help of God, I am doing well. I am just waiting to make my one-year appointment with the cardiologist six months from now. I can hardly wait to see if I make it without an episode. If so, I am going to see what the doctor says about soy toxicity.

Take care of yourselves.

Regards.
