Anaphylaxis?? I need answers
A little over a week ago I noticed my legs were itching, small tiny bumps started to appear and soon they covered my inner thighs, arms, my hips and love handles. I went to the ER 2 days ago, they gave me Benadryl and 2 other pills and prescribed me hydrocortisone and prednisone. I told the guy that Benadryl nor hydrocortisone was helping me and that I recently started feeling tightness in my throat. He shined a quick light and told me my airways looked fine.
Fast forward to today, the hives are spreading and worsening and my tongue feels almost like it’s in an uncomfortable spot, my nose is heavily congested and I keep coughing mucus. It’s hard to clear my throat so I sound wheezy and hoarse, is this early anaphylaxis? I’ve had an allergic reaction in the past but it was nothing like this, I also never found out what it was caused by and I have no idea what this flare up is being caused by either.
Should I revisit the ER?
