What a romantic night last night turned out to be. A post below says love stinks,but it itched around here last night. The wife and I went out for supper and she had the steak and shrimp special. Shrimp never bothered her before. She eats it every chance she gets,and we're not sure that's what did it last night,but when we got home,she was complaining of an itch. She thought it was the sweater she had on,so she put her pajamas on. She was getting red,so she took another shower. That only made it worse. She went to town and got some cortizone cream and smeared that all over. It helped til about 11 o'clock. Then she said she felt like she was having trouble breathing.Soooooo....a trip to the emergency room for a shot. She finally got to bed about 1:30 this morning. She still has a rash on her neck,but the itching has stopped. Emergency room doctor said he thought it was something she ate. D@mned Vietnamese shrimp I guess?
 
That happened to my better half the first time she drank diet pop sweetened with aspartame. Scary way to find out you are allergic to something. Hope she is OK.
 
My wife at the time ate a shark meat steak at a fancy restraunt. Swelled up like a poisoned pup. Which was about the case.I had a bite to taste it. No ill effects. Tasted quite like beef.
ER Doc told us more people are killed each yesr from eating shark than sharks have ever killed.
He said it was due to them being carrion eaters and picking up all sorts of toxins.
 
All imported shrimp is pond raised. It could have been a preservative,an antibiotic or growth hormone that she reacted to. All imported shrimp are supposed to be inspected, but, who knows. There is always a slim possibility that it wasn't the shrimp itself, but some other ingredient in the recipe.
