Allergic reaction question From: JCH (anonymous@obgyn.net) Fri, 30 Oct 1998 03:38:59 -0700 Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: Mary: "FW: OBGYN.net Osteoporosis Update" Previous message: anon: "Selective reporting of medical history (was elective abortion)" Dear Doctors Please don't laugh but I have a rather strange question for you. First, I need to explain the situation. A few years ago, on two separate occasions, my husband had to go to the emergency room because an antibiotic he was given caused him to go into anaphylactic shock (I think that's what its called). The first time he was given around 8 epinephrine shots and was in the ER for about five hours. The second time was much more severe, he was given about 15 epinephrine shots and was in the ER about eight hours. For the last three days I have been taking the antibiotic he is allergic too and had just taken one about ten minutes before we went to bed tonight. (I just want to say that my husband works out of town all week and had just gotten home so he did not know I was taking this antibiotic). My husband and I of course make love which included some oral stuff and this is where it gets strange. About fifteen to twenty minutes later my husband face and chest starts turning red, his legs and "other parts" start itching, he's flushed, nauseated, has stomach cramps and diarrhea. I gave him an antihistamine and about fifteen minutes later he started feeling better. I know this sounds crazy but I am wondering what the chances are of me (or my body fluids) passing this antibiotic to him during sex, and has anyone ever heard of this happening before. Any comments would be appreciated. -- JCH Next message: Mary: "FW: OBGYN.net Osteoporosis Update" Previous message: anon: "Selective reporting of medical history (was elective abortion)"
