During Family Brunch, Sister Called It 'Just Allergies'—The CDC Director Disagreed

During Family Brunch, Sister Called It 'Just Allergies'—The CDC Director Disagreed ‪@RevengeNexus-j1e‬ The first anaphylactic reaction happened at a coffee shop when I was thirty-one. One moment I was drinking a latte, the next my throat was closing, hives erupting across my skin, my blood pressure dropping so fast I collapsed. The paramedics hit me with epinephrine twice before I could breathe again. "Idiopathic anaphylaxis," the allergist said after weeks of testing. "Your immune system is attacking you randomly. We can't identify a specific trigger." Over six months, I had twelve more episodes. At work, at home, in my car. Each time requiring emergency epinephrine, each time nearly killing me. I was a research scientist at the National Institute of Health, working in infectious disease epidemiology. The random attacks made it impossible to work in the lab.
