So I had an allergic reaction in the cinema...

I was eating nachos with their three sauces, cheese, salsa and guacamole and a side of jalapeños.
Half way through my nose started running so I thought it was the spice.

But my throat felt close and I started to cough a little.

My left arm started to itch and I had a mini rash appear.

I got hot and suddenly felt the panic setting in.

A few seconds later I remembered I have my nasal antihistamine in my makeup bag.

I took too sprays per nostril and monitored my pulse and rash.

Very quickly my airways opened back up, and the rash felt less itchy.

I flooded my system with the last of the water I had.

I currently have one visible bump from the rash and the redness has cleared...

Scaryyy!

Get yourself checked after a similar occurrence (it can go down and quickly come up again, swelling and all), and possibly avoid everything you were having until you can clear out with an allergy test what you can have and what you should keep avoiding. Anaphylaxis is no joke if it happens.
