I recently had one of my Blood Pressure medications upped and now my tongue is all swollen, my throat feels like it is swollen my face is bloated, and I have a horrible headache and feeling horrible. I even had to call in Sick today. So for now until my Doctors apt. later this afternoon, I am sitting here posting in myLot.
So have you ever had an allergic reaction to a Medication, or finding it hard to find a Medication that works for you? What do you do when you are not feeling Good? Do you ever come here to myLot to post just to hopefully be able to take your mind off of how you are feeling as well?

I've had allergic reactions to food which were the same symptoms you're having today so it's good that you're seeing your doctor this afternoon. When I'm not feeling well I goof around on the internet, yes, but I haven't been sick since I joined mylot so I can't answer your question directly. Mylot must be good for my health! 
I hope you feel better real soon.

Mylot was certainly good for my mental health. I am sick right now, but it is the first time in quite awhile that I have been this sick. I love being on here most of the time.

It was not my Medication and my tongue actually quit hurting later that day, and I have had no real issue with it since. I just think this was strange that it only acted up for that short time as well.

I went to the emergency room early this morning. I have migraines a lot. And if my prescription medication doesn't work after four days, I may go to the ER and they will give me a shot. They are so painful and I can't hold food down, you know what I mean. This morning I was blindsided by the pain. It was so awful I could barely hold in screams. My parents came and took me to the ER. Thank God they could tell right off how horrid it was. Right now I'm trying to get my mind off of it. Most of the pain is gone or I would not be online. But I keep dozing on and off to sleep.

Hi Tina,
When I am not feeling good, I love to just stay in bed and relax. Then when I am tired doing that, I will be in mylot.
I hope you will feel better!

I don't take any medication on a regular basis, so I have never had that problem. I am not allergic to any medication that I am aware of either. I hope your doctor can get you on a medication that works right for you. Those are not nice side effects to have.

I was feeling ill enough last night that I could not even post. I will see the doctor tomorrow. Did they have you discontinue that med until you can get in to see them? How about increasing fluid intake to dilute its effect on you? I hope you are okay my friend.

I have a allergic reaction to Topomax. A nerologist I had in the past put me on it to help with my migranies. I told him I tried it before and it caused my mouth to move from side to side. He told me to try it anyhow to see what happened. So I did and it made me grouchy and made my eye brow move. I quit taking them and it stopped.

Hey Tina! Yes, I have come to mylot to pass the time away just
to make sure that I won't fall asleep or worse! I know how
horrible it is to have an allergic reaction to a medication
and not to be able to see the doctor right away! So yes, my
other reaction is to visit mylot to pass the time away while
I am waiting for my appointment! As long as I am not too sick
and have to rush to the hospital then I would come here to
mylot just to keep myself from feeling too much worse! I hope
that your doctor can figure out what the problem is! Feel
better soon!
