I suffered a severe allergic reaction to which antihistamines prescribed by my doctor did not help. I started getting worse and hives spread on my neck. It was a long wait that exhausted me but I was thoroughly examined and prescribed medicine strong enough to release my suffering. By the time the medicine started working my body was on hire for 24 hours with severe itching all over and swollen hand, feet and face. Due to angioedema (swelling) of my feet it was difficult to walk too.
It was such a relief to start feeling better and I even slept the whole night even though the medicine was meant to keep me awake.
Thank you for your help!
