How people feel when they are about to have an Anaphylactic Reaction and what symptoms occur when this happens.
Most people who have had an allergic reaction first sense a feeling of foreboding - their body does not feel ‘right’. Early symptoms of anaphylaxis may include itchiness of palms or soles, faintness, feeling of generalised warmth, tingling, or metallic taste in the mouth, throat or chest discomfort, and breathing difficulty. Advanced symptoms of anaphylaxis may include facial swellings, hives, breathing difficulty, choking or coughing, vomiting or stomach upset, dizziness, loss of consciousness, diarrhoea, cramping and a drop in blood pressure. These symptoms can occur in as little as 5 to 15 minutes, but life-threatening reactions may progress over hours.
What people should do if they are having an Anaphylactic Reaction.
If you are having an anaphylactic reaction, get help immediately! You should try to stop the reaction as soon as possible.
Sometimes, 2 glasses of water with 2 tbsp of epsom salt will stop the reaction.
Sometimes, 2 glasses of water with 2 tbsp of unrefined sea salt will stop the reaction.
Sometimes, you will need an epinephrine (adrenaline) injection to help stop the reaction. You must then immediately go to the nearest emergency ROOM or hospital for treatment. Epinephrine buys you little time until they can get professional help.
Most Anaphylactic Reactions can be prevented by curing allergies, by increasing liver health and bowel health.
If you are severely allergic, carry a supply of epinephrine (adrenaline), available via prescription as an EpiPen® or AnaKit®, at all times. Cleanse your liver every 7 days!!
Keep epinephrine in several places where you are often.
People should teach themselves, and other family members how to use the epinephrine kit. Practice until the directions for its use are second nature.
Wear a Medic Alert® bracelet or necklace noting your allergy in case you become unconscious during a severe reaction.
What medication can be used to control and prevent Anaphylactic Reactions?
The most common treatment, once anaphylaxis is established, is an injection of adrenaline which restores the blood circulation. Any other medication is too slow. Adrenaline is available via prescription in the form as an EpiPen® or AnaKit®, and a supply should be carried by the sufferer at all times. There are also other medications which can be used in less severe cases, these include steroids, antihistamines, and cortisone.
