I was getting an allergy test today and I passed out after the 2nd round of the test. 3 rounds of test total.

Mine body temperature spiked, lips turned green, vision was blurry, etc. I was incoherent for 20 minutes before I realized what had happen and what was going on. 4 nurses and a doctor was cooling me off and monitoring me. I have to get my blood drawn later as precaution to see if anything else was a factor in this other than just passing out from repetitive injection. Out of 110 needles I was positive to like 10-12 things. Worst morning ever. :-/

I hated having an allergy test. But I didn't pass out.

I am allergic to cats and a few types of grasses though.

I have never had a test for it, but I am allergic to shrimp.  I swell up in my throat if I eat it or if I touch it.  Once while night fishing we rigged up some shrimp until we caught our shad.  I had the guy I was with bait my hook for me, then when we had shad I had him unbait it.  I put the shad on, then somehow I got it in my eyes, just from touching the hook that had shrimp on it.  Had to flush my eyes out with water for a long time.  Even if I eat shrimp flavored ramen noodles it effects me.

They're still waiting for the blood test, but as of now the theory is I blackout from my body being stressed. I don't believe it, but whatever. My blood pressure is 116/84. Darn near perfect. Ah well, screw it.

I believe it my brother when he was younger (like 9) passed out because of the same reason he knew he was getting multiple shots and when they gave him his 3rd lights out. Its anxiety. Some people get so worked up they blackout.

I have done the allergy test and never had any adverse reaction from the test, these are not injections but tiny little ******.  For a non medical person reading symptoms one could only take a wild guess, the lab report will tell much more.  BP will fluctuate thruout the day and be on the high side if you are stressed when the BP test was done, my guess is your blood pressure is slightly lower than 116/84.  Mine fluctuates between 110/71 and 130/80 in the course of the day.

This gives me a great idea.  I think I'll hop on down to the local watering hole and perform a self-test to if I'm allergic to any types of alcohol.

I wonder how many tests I make it through before I pass out?
