• allergic reactions.

  last night around 4:20am, i went through a severe allergic reaction. i woke up to scratchy throat, stuffed sinuses and itchy eyes.

  i immediately swallowed 4 pills of benadryl but before it corrected my issue, i had to deal with burning throat, multiple itchy areas (i.e. head, neck, pits and hands), vomiting and constipation.

  this was different from my usual allergic reaction in that i did not eat fruits and involve myself in strenuous physical activity.

  from what i can remember, the possible causes are:

  • too much recent famotidine usage to prevent asian glow (this i know causes the constipation portion)
  • developing sudden allergy to cinnamon toast crunch
  • allergic to the nasal spray that yuta offered me before i slept (which he gave me to clear my stuffy nose

  anyway, it ruined my sleep and the benadryl knocked me out for 12 hours and i woke up at 6pm today.

  sigh.

  i should get to sleep. enough crying for the day.
