Just been to hospital today after suffering a lovely allergic reaction to crab.
I couldn't breathe, my eyes kind of swelled up and I went all weird and blotchy. It's all good fun for a Saturday.
Sat in A&E it was obvious I'd be an easy answer in the 'Lets get people's ailments game'.
But no fear, apart from feeling like shit, I'm okay!
I really hope that you feel better soon.
I am a cancerian.

Thanks!!!!!!
Anaphylaxis? I had a bit of that once. All the wrong bits swelled up.

I guess - though it didn't look like it was life-threatening (though, you don't know until all the symptoms actually stop) I imagine it was a form of that.
Can you sue them over some dodgy claws? (Awful pun - apologies in advance but I am temping for SootyJ tonight.)
But allergy is no laughing matter in truth, lucky it wasn't worse. Glad you're okay. 
Did they give you antihistamines? Or adrenaline? Or a pat on the back?
Get well soon.

Yes, jokes would be rash.
But SlagA is right as usual. I guess it wasn't anything too serious if they let you home and didn't warn you off all foodstuffs for life.

As it was mild (compared to say, dying) antihistamines did the trick.

I'm going to got to the doctors, just to be on the safe side.
What concerns me is the fact I've never been stung by a wasp. So now I'll be shitting myself when one is around more than ever.
