AHAHAHA SO, I know you guys probably all want to kill me when I do these, because you'd rather get...actual...finished things...then these snippets. But butterflythread is facing down weather disaster and needs cheering, and for various reasons (RL things/time constraints/MAJORLY BLOCKED ON THE ENTIRE STORY ARC) I haven't been able to finish these stories/may not

Ah! It's domestic! verse!

But... if someone watched me inject my epi-pen, and then painted the wall with whatever I was allergic to, and then walked out without taking me to emerg, I would... Actually I have no idea what I would do. The epi gives you enough time to get to the hospital, hopefully, and when it wears off, the reaction can come right back. So it's usually a few hours in the hospital hooked up to a heart monitor and a massive dose of anti-histamine. Sorry, I don't usually lecture people on my health issues! I hope you don't mind.

And I love the sleepwalking snippet.

....ahahahahah okay THAT IS DISTRESSING ON SEVERAL LEVELS, the most distressing being the fact that I actually *have* an epipen I've never had to use, and it was presented to me as being something that would instantly and completely halt the reaction. GUESS WHO WILL BE CALLING THE ALLERGIST TOMORROW, OH MY FUCKING GOD.

Thank you for telling me; I'm going to leave this up as-is now because...WIP post...but rest assured I'll figure out some way to edit around it when I actually finish the story :D

OMG, WHAT?

Yes, please call your allergist. Every time I've used my epi, it's been to get to the hospital, and then they hook me up to a heart monitor because of the epinephrine. And then a dose of antihistamines big enough to knock me out, and then they wait until they're sure the adrenaline has worn off, and the reaction isn't rebounding right away. And then send me home, usually wanting reassurance that someone's there to monitor me.

The epinephrine should stop the reaction, but it might be a temporary relief, AFAIK.

*hugs* Allergies suck.
