@artscaping Well Chris, thanks so much for your kind words to me. I do really listen to people here, and sometimes, it overwhelms me. But I do try to really listen. As far as sulfa drugs, I doubt you or I should ever take them again. When I took them, my entire face was like one huge hive. Even the doctor got alarmed. So no, don't take them! I won't! LoriRenee1

I stopped the new drug. My face like a red beet for 3 days scared me plus the NIH info John provided. I hope my nurse practitioner understands and will maybe prescribe a painkiller again. I don’t want to take drugs that aren’t what they are intended for or with extra side effects. Gabba and the others didn’t work for me. I feel guilty about it like I should have tried harder

Wow Lori Renee! When the face swells, one must be sure the tongue does not swell. Face and lip swelling is usually a STAT 911 call; nothing to minimize! I'm sure it is but would definitely ask if your medical chart if flagged that you have a true sulfa allergy. Tell every medical provider that you see. There, I feel much better now!!! OY! Sunny. 😲😟🧐
