Hmm...

Woke up this morning and my uvula (that punching bag thing in the back of your throat) is all swollen. It's making it sort of difficult to swallow...I have the sensation of my throat closing up a bit. I wonder if it's an allergic reaction to the Chinese food I had last night, my forgetting to wear the CPAP, or Karma catching up to me for taking today off of work. I'm going to take a shower and get dressed, and if it's still this bad or gets worse, I'll be calling the doctor at 9am. No restricted breathing, but it is very difficult to swallow. This is going to cut into my day, I had plans, of a sort... involving having a 'mental health day'. I can hardly relax if I'm worried about my physical well-being.

Ah, well. A nice hot shower will set me right, I hope. More to follow.

That is a common reaction to an MSG allergy...
and Chinese food is usually loaded with it..

you should keep some benadryl elixur on hand....

If you start to have a hard time breathing, call 911....

I hope it's nothing...Ü

you know, I have benedryl caplets here, left over from an allergic eye reaction... think those'd help?

I did get my chinese from a different place last night. I bet that's it....I was suspecting all sorts of things from allergy to spider-bite.

If it gets bad, I'll feel free to call 911. thanks!

*hug*

Hope your uvula gets better. :)

Mine has done that before back when I was having all that trouble with strept throat. You might want to get a throat culture just to make sure you don't have it.
