Sniffle, sniffle, sniffle … cough, cough … That’s what my days been like. I think I might either be coming down with a cold or else my sniffles and coughing are remnants of the allergic reaction I had on Saturday night thanks to the shrimp that I ate. I’m still patting my self on the back for that great addition to our meal (NOT).
I still have some hives on my face and neck, and I noticed today that the area above and below my eyebrows is a little puffy and red … kind of like I just plucked my eyebrows.
So as I said I’m not sure whether I’m getting a cold or it’s still my allergic reaction that’s making me feel yucky today. Either way, I think that by the time Chris comes home tonight he’s going to find me curled up in our new Sferra sheets that I just put on our bed. All warm and cozy and trying to recover from whatever my body has decided to do to me today.
Hmmm maybe I’ll make myself a hot Toddy later … yeah that will make my raw throat feel better and make me sleepy too.
I hope that you guys are having a better day than I am!
Sorry to hear you are feeling so sick. I am sending lots of happy thoughts your way in hopes you’ll feel better. Do you usually get a allergic reaction from shrimp?
Yikes! Shrimp allergies can be very serious. I’ve been allergic for about 17 years. The worst thing about those kinds of allergies is that the reaction gets worse each time you are exposed….so be careful.
You didn’t mention whether or not you have an epi-pen. Any Dr. can write a script for one of those. If you go out to eat, it’s a ‘must’ for you to have. It has saved me more than one time where the restaurants grilled their shrimp on the same grill as everything else.
Hope you’re feeling better each day!
