Allergies anyone?
#1
I just had my coffee and a chocolate chip muffin from a store i normally don't go to. Now i have hives all over my face, neck and chest. Itching like crazy. i took 1/2 of a Cloritrimatone (sp) and put on some Cortizone 10 creme.
That helps but the hives are spreading down my chest now.
i've had hives come on all my life but wonder what in the world they put in muffins?? I guess i'll stay away from them from now on.
anybody have ideas for the itching?

I just called my Pharmacy and was told to have someone with me in case my half pill makes me fall asleep and i keep getting a reaction. like lips, throat, etc. swelling.
i think the hives are slowing down now. I do wish i knew what i ate that i'm allergic to. No other suggestions on cream to use, so i guess i'm good.

Might have been the cream, if you use it. Or something in the coffee, could it have been mold? If it isn't in a busy place, then it could be caused by nearly anything. Do keep a close check on it and should it keep spreading, then do go to the doctor. Something that severe should not be happening.
Write down the name and address of the little place you got this coffee and sweets.
You might want to check with the local health department, if they have many (don't know the number that will get them moving) complaints about a place they will investigate to see what was causing the trouble.

I'm going to call the store where i bought the muffins and see if i can talk to anyone who might help. i doubt it but it is worth a try. thanks.
you mention mold and i am highly allergic to mold. it was my own coffee pot but maybe i will go clean it, just to be on the safe side!
