			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Just when I thought my life was getting dull, I get hit with a traumatic experience.  I&#8217;ve been home a lot lately with nowhere to go and nothing to do.  I decided to go eat with a friend and ordered some stir fried noodle dish.  I made sure to tell them to not put any peanuts on the dish.  I guess they forgot to realize that there were traces of  peanuts in the sauce.  The allergic reaction didn&#8217;t hit right away. I just thought it was something else and continued to eat.  STUPID ME.</p>
<p>The pharmacy was right beside so I walked there and bought benadryl. I popped a couple pills thinking it would go away.  I felt uncomfortable but the discomfort wasssss tolerable.  I just sat down with my friends and taking it easy.  But then it started to hit me. I started to have trouble breathing and my nose was all stuffed up. I felt my tonsils getting swollen and I was itching like mad&#8230;especially my scalp.  I told my friend to rush me to the hospital because I think it was just getting worse. I could see my friend stressing out and very nervous driving me there.  I had my epi-pen with me.  I wasn&#8217;t sure if I was supposed to use it or not. I always assumed that  you should just use it when you literally can&#8217;t breath.  That was stupid number 2.</p>
<p>Advice for those who have peanut allergies or any severe allergies for that matter.</p>
<p>1. If you feel ANY breathing discomfort&#8230;start jabbing ur ass with the epi-pen lols. jk your thighs will do</p>
<p>2. Benadryl is one of the best things you can take when going through an allergy reaction. Nomore than 3 pills within 4-6 hours.</p>
<p>So when I got to the hospital. I went straight to the emergency room.  There was a glass thingy that seperated me from the secretary/nurse.  I had a lot of trouble breathing, my face was red as a tomato and tears kept running down my face.  And no I wasn&#8217;t crying&#8230;my eyes were just itching and watery as hell. The two nurses were just ignoring me and gossiping.  FOR SO LONG. I&#8217;m standing there going wtf is going on here.  Until a nurse walked by and helped me out.  She sent me to another nurse who ran some tests on me.  I was asking her some questions just so I have a better understanding of what was going on. OMG&#8230;I have NEVER ever seeen a nurse give me so much attitude in my life.  I&#8217;m standing her dying and she has the audacity to give me sarcasm. FUCK YOU BITCH -_- sigh That&#8217;s free healthcare for you lol</p>
<p>Then she sent me to the waiting room where my friends were keeping me company.  The look on their faces was so sad, it made me feel like shit.  But I definately appreciated all of them being there for me.  The waiting took FOREVERRRR it was ridiculous!!! I was like seriously struggling to breathe properly. Finally when they called out my name, I think my friends stood up before I did haha. They sent me to a room, where I had to wait some more. By then I was scratching my arms and back to the point where it was bleeding.  Finally the doctor came and gave me some STEROIDS LOL&#8230;and put a gas mask on me, which fed me ventolin.  It made me feel SOOO much better. I didn&#8217;t want any needles.  I seriously tried to talk the doctors out of giving me any injections.  After a couple hours they let me go home YAY.</p>
<p>But yeah that was my story of the day.  And oh yeah&#8230; my old workplace called me and told me how the credit card company was looking for me. I was flipping out while at the hospital going WTH is going on today.  Apparently someone tried to identity theft me.  LIKE OMFG -_-&#8217;  FML SERIOUSLY!</p>

LOL yeah we were focking around taking pictures&#8230;eventhough we weren&#8217;t allowed to have our cell phones turned on.  I saw a couple doctors walking by laughing lols.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-323  aligncenter" title="2" src="http://www.lindadang.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/2.jpg" alt="2" width="320" height="240" />Ventolin is amazing! It was so gross though. Because when you breathe through ur mouth, you can literally taste it. Yuck.</p>
