"I have COPD and allergies. I was exposed to AGENT ORANGE in Vietnam in 1970. I've had two experiences with anaphylaxis in the last year. Both times my wife injected me with the drug in the EPI-PEN. This reaction kept me breathing the 1st time, and the ambulance took me to the emergency room. I recovered in the ER, and was released the following day. The 2nd time was far worse. Epi-pen gave me about 5 minutes where I could breathe, but my wife had call 9-1-1, and they arrived quickly. I do not recall the transport, nor the ER treatment. I was out. There were 8 doctors and nurses working on me according to my wife. I came to in intensive care, with 7 or 8 IV devices, and a room full of medical personnel. My wife was asked about a DNR in the emergency room. I was in a bad way. I stayed in ICU for 2 1/2 days, and was released. The doctors and the EMA techs said my wife saved my life by giving me the EPI-PEN injection. It gave me just enough time for medical assistance to arrive."
