What are you allergic to?
I never thought I had allergies, but I found on Thursday last week at 2am, that Im allergic to Maxalon, a med given for nausea and vomiting. On Mon 27th, I got my wisdom teeth out, and then that was all fine and stuff, and then Tues my tongue started to hang out, and then went back in, and then later that day just hang out.. Woke up Wednesday and my tongue just refused to go in at all during the day and night.
Mum rang me that night to see how i was recuperating from the operation, and I couldnt talk at all...I was like moaning words..just hold your tongue out and talk at the same time and thats how i was. My neck was like stiff and bending backwards during the day, drooling all the time,a dn yeah pain from that....mum worked that out,a nd she came over to take me to emergency. But she got to my place and saw me kinda fitting and stiff, and immediately rang the ambulance.
They though i was having a fit or had a intellectul disability coz my head was just like back and facing right, and shaking so much but i wasnt at all cold. I just was blank as but could still respond and stuf like that.
The ER docs didnt know what was going on, thinking it was a neuro problem and then mum found the Maxalon adn the docs were like oH well that explains everything, and so they gave me some cogentin (benztropine) to reverse the maxalon and stop the sharking and getting my tongue back in. I stayed till HThurs morning and then went home all sore from shaking so much.
Strange thing is, ive taken maxalon several times and NEVER had a reaction. THe docs were like oh well its pretty rare to get the dystonia as they put it.
So now my pupils are still really big (dilated) and im still dizzy at ttimes but im giong to see a neurologist next week.
So yeah to answer my question: im allergic to maxalon.
