"I just went through 3 months of idiopathic anaphylaxis. But this time around I also had terribly itchy rashes as well. I had myself hospitalized the first time just to refresh and update new meds. None of the non-drowsy antihistamines worked, and I had at least 9 Epipen episodes. The doctor put me on a one-off 100 mg of cortisone also. Apparently, my potassium was low, so I got an IV dose of that too. I saw many specialists, and none could help. My GP suggested I cut down on food containing histamine, I didn't even know it did. After doing that, I had no more anaphylaxis but still got some itchies. Phenergan saved my life."

"So I had an extremely bad reaction to betahistine that I got prescribed for dizziness. My face, lips, and tongue got swollen up. I was having sensitivity to light and noise. Was puking and diarrheaing the whole time. Got a majorly hot head and headache. Got weak, tingly, and twitchy. Was having trouble breathing for 2 days and didn’t go into emergency until the next day, and they did nothing to help. I was feeling a little less hypersensitive the next day but still so dizzy and still having diarrhea and cramps. I couldn’t walk, so I went to emergency again. They gave me promethazine and it’s kind of helping the dizziness but still feeling horrible from that reaction."
