So, in my last post I said I went to the doctor for hives/rash and feeling really achy.  Well it only got worse.  My lip kept swelling and my mom had to talk to the doctor about 10 more times, he finally said I should go to the ER.  So around 10:45  my and I went to the hospital in Greer.  They asked  me a lot of the same questions that the doctor did and they gave me another shot, this time in the stomach. They also gave me an IV with Benadryl to stop the reaction (swelling in my lip). They told me to go ahead and take the medicine the other doctor had prescribed (Prednisone, & zantac) and follow up with him on Wednesday like I was suppose to. They felt that I must have eaten something that I was allergic to.  They also have me a prescription for two EpiPens in case I have another severe allergic reaction.  Those are the things you have to jab into your own leg.  I don't think that would be fun.   We did not get home from the hospital until around 3:30 or 4:00. I can not run right now I have to wait until the doctor clears me on Wednesday.  Basketball tryouts are suppose to start tomorrow but I can not go because of this.  My mom called the coach to explain that I wanted to tryout but I would not be able to play until the doctor cleared me.. Maybe I can at least go watch  tryouts.
