Doctor: Do you have any other difficulties besides breathing?
You: I can’t help scratching the rush on my back.
Doctor: I see. Nurse, epinephrine shot. Quick!
Nurse: Here you are doctor.
Doctor: Relax and try to breathe. I am going to put you an
epinephrine shot.
You: (few minutes later) I can breathe! Sorry I freaked out. I
panicked as soon as I experienced difficulty in breathing.
Doctor: That’s absolutely normal. You had an anaphylactic
shock.
You: I see, but I have never been allergic to anything doc,
Why now?
Doctor: Anyone can develop an allergy out of the blue. Have
you been in contact with animals, nuts, seafood or the like?
You: Not that I remem… wait a sec. I started yesterday as a
groomer!
Doctor: well, that must have been the trigger. We’ll have to
get some exams to determine the nature of your allergy.
Meanwhile stay away from animals.
You: Well, I guess I have to find a new job, then. Thanks doc.
