Allergic Reaction (Anaphylaxis) vs Side Effects Reaction

article image placeholderUploaded by @jillbenoff
Then it was what you see here. And I was, like, thinking to myself, you know, maybe I should just go check it out. But that yeah. There is a difference between an allergic reaction and a side effect reaction. Either one is pretty dangerous. I know anaphylaxis is ten times worse, but I just wanted to check it out for myself. I'm perfectly fine. Well, I'm fine. I'm normal. Whatever you consider normal, I'm back to being me

It's the exact same thing when they're listing off the side effects to some of these medications and it's like the side effects are terrible and what the medication is supposed to treat isn't worse than any of the side effects you could have. Anyway, the point is, I'm sorry that you had to deal with that and that you have an allergic reaction. But listen, at the end of the day, you're still alive. That's pretty good, right?

When my grandmother passed away, which was in New Jersey in 1993, we were all kind of hanging out at my aunt's house, and the hospital called and said, hey, you might want to come back to the hospital. We don't know she's close. And not to sound depressing, but this is actually pretty funny
