Once a year or so you can always count on this A list east coast reality star to tell us how close she was to death from disasters to accidents to anything in between. She is a living, breathing David Dunn with her ability cheat death.
Will say though that anaphylaxis is scary as hell and I almost died - think I could be a reality star?
Doc says I cannot go into the grocery stores during shellfish boiling season because the proteins are in the steam and could bring on another episode. My husband takes over that chore during those months.
@AbbyRock my friend was severely allergic and reacted to ice that had been around PACKAGED frozen shrimp. It's really scary and you can quickly die. Years ago a woman came into town to meet and stay with an old friend. That friend had a rabbit who her guest was allergic to. Her friend was like, "You'll be fine" and put the rabbit in another room. The friend slept on the sofa, reacted to the dander, and died.
Wow, the friend of the woman who died must carry a lot of guilt.
As I posted anaphylaxis is scary as shit. I had seizures off and on for hours and that was after they had me hooked up to half a dozen machines and had given me Epinephrine and O2. My reaction was to soft shelled crab and I had eaten that food for 57 years. Sucks because I don't eat poultry or pork and very little beef. Until that episode, my protein source was shellfish.
Not sure if the chemicals used to clean the Deep Water Horizon spill had anything to do with it. I do know families who fish or trawl for seafood and they have seen abnormalities in both fish and shellfish since the cleanup-not all of the catches but they have seen some.
@AbbyRock, wow. It could be any number of things you reacted to. My friend spontaneously lost (?) her allergy several years after that. My grandmother developed a later in life allergy to milk. She had it for about 20 years before it, too, spontaneously resolved. Peanut allergies have exploded and there are some theories that it may be from some of the processing and not the legume itself.
