I can only imagine the scary situation. My buddy collapsed as well at home, and luckily his nephew was right there and saw him. It was a heart attack... Glad your wife was home then.
Hope you are back in better form soon. |

If it goes far enough, people can die or receive an emergency surgical airway from angioedema...

Good to hear you're going to be okay, Hugh.
Gotta love those medication commercials. Footage of the happy patients leading a wonderful life, while the rapidly spoken warning says "in some cases, death..."

Glad you're doing better Hugh. I had a similar reaction to penicillin when I was a kid.

Get back to normal ASAP Hugh. I've been taking the same med for BP for a long time. Glad I've not experienced any negative effects. Like Paul I also had a similar reaction to penicillin as a kid. That was scary.

Bet it scared hell out of DR, stressful when your everlovin' spouse is trying to up and die on you like that.
Maybe you should meditate, or listen to Mozart or something for the hypertension. Is medical MJ legal in Pennsylvania? Probably not, damn Quakers

Glad you're OK Hugh. Pretty scary how varied (and extreme) reactions to common meds can be.

Glad you are feeling better. Life is fragile and can go south quickly from a bad reaction to medicine.

Glad you are recovering.
See what happens when you retire! Now do it right, like the Vulcans say, Live long and prosper.
