What's up? How is your Christmas, folks?
Mine is fine. Slight accident happened on December 25, around 2 in the morning.
December 24, I went to my grandpa's apartment (with my grandmom), because we'd be having dinner there. There were shrimps and crabs. I'm completely aware that I am allergic to crabs. I decided to eat one because I haven't eaten crabs after how many years! I didn't have anti-histamine meds left in my wallet. Weird, right? In my wallet? Funny. Moving on, because of my stubbornness, I still ate. Yummy!
Around 1:45 AM when my grandmom and I arrived home. I went straight to my room. At first, I felt itchiness on my neck. I was wearing a sweater, so I thought it was because of my sweater why it was itchy. I removed my sweater but still, I felt itchiness on my neck, at the back. Good thing it didn't go over my whole body! Only half of it.
I went downstairs and asked my grandmom if there's an alternative cure for allergies. She said sugar. So I ate sugar.
I felt fine and I can still breathe. Coz I know some people who attacked by an allergy can hardly breathe.
Good thing my uncle was awakened when he heard us talking about allergies. He went out riding a motorcycle to look for a drug store. It took 1 hour before he came home. Thank God, my meds are already in my hands. Yea!
I took meds, drink, went upstairs and sleep. The next day I woke up, itchiness no more!
It's a lesson learned for me. Whenever I see a crab, if it's fresh or not, never attempt to eat it. Or else, allergy will visit me again.
Be careful about what you eat!
Thanks for reading!

Yes you have to be careful what you eat when you have allergies.
