Benadryl and ephinephrine is usually what you get for a severe allergic reaction. Which would make since if your allergic to an epi- pen. Kale that is how we found out Benadryl doesnt work for me and Ephinephrine (most brands) have a preservative which i'm allergic to. I did get some shots of pure adrenaline tho. I looked like HECK but wow, when I got home I was doing housework and cleaning until 4am! havent felt that good ever again. Wish I had some of those shots available for daily use

What female was just complaining that "they would put someone in with a problem like that Lurk...that was the darling Sharon. Just as an aside, and to maybe turn the conversation a bit....Boogie had to wear a blindfold when he was taken out of the house to get stitches in his foot. I wonder if the girls had to, too.

Wow, listen to this youtube (if you haven't yet.) Chelsia sounds like the biggest . . . she says "guarentee it - she's just doing it because she's on slop" (But it does show her get up with everyone else.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2OL6FOTJxM

I don't think asking for a piece of fruit is CHEATING espically when your in dire need of it. That's pretty harsh to say!

I was in my 30's when I had my allergic reaction to shellfish for the first time. A couple months before I had even eaten clams and no reaction but this night I had lobster and on the way home from the restaurant I started to itch like a thousand mosquitos had got me...by the time I got home I had broke out in hives...called the hospital and they told me to come right in... my throat was getting bad on the way in...so you can develop an allergy late in life. I was brought up on the Cape and ate tons of shell fish with no reaction before this occurance.

the medical opinions to the doctors. So shouldn't posters here. sorry Upstate, that is my training and specialty. I dislike misinformation that I see routinely written in various threads. You'll see me try to clarfiy issues all over the place. If not just to open discussion and share info. LIKE do not ROLL anyone onto their back like that

Is it cheating if you need it to safely maintain your health???? Clearly she needed it for an emergency medical reason NOT TO JUST CHEAT!!!!! Amanda didn't want a snack...she wanted what her body needed!!!! BTW I think that was Chelsia that made that crude comment I asked about (I played back and am pretty sure it was her voice, and she was right there)...what a shock on that front. NOT

I don't consider it cheating..There is a penalty if you eat when on slop restriction..I think Amanda knows her own body and she kept telling everyone that she needs to eat a piece of bread or something..Amanda was damn if she did and damned if she didn't,,She didn't want Alex to get in trouble and everybody kept ribbing her that she was using that to get off from eating slop...Some feel bad about it but some only think she shouldn't of been able to come on the show..

tvwatcher you just cracked me up.......George with a fork and the toaster. LOL Just great. OT or maybe not tonite......I've gotten sick on the last 3 vacations.....cruie, vegas and baltimore. The only thing I can think back and try and tie them all together is fresh fruit. I've never had this b4. But I've heard about fresh fruit/veg rince. I'm wondering if that could be it. I did eat fruit in DR but that is such a poor country figured they wouldn't of used a product to wash fruit. well any insight would be appreciated. hope amanda and allison are ok

This shows Amanda walking around telling people she NEEDS sugar and she has been in the DR to ask for it. It continues on to the point she faints and convulses. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLV1LTsozkw

lol Bee didn't see your post. You sure? When no one replied I played it back a few times. I am not great on their voices yet and it was off cam but I thought it was Chelsia. Truthfully I could see either of those sweethearts saying it LOLOL

How about this one Sun.... if your allergic to sulfa drugs putting sulfa drops in your ear is a BAD idea! (this actually happened to my nephew his Dr (HMO) put sulfa drops in his ear and he almost died.)

Remember the "special" food for Kaysar and the Queen of the Nerd Herd who was lactose intolerant.... The entire HGs complied to their special diets, so why would it be different with a hypoglycemic...

Sun, from what I saw she fell on her back and they left her that way, until she started convulsing and rolled herself over. Spy, I thought we could talk about recent house happenings, am I incorrect? And Amanda is the biggest house happening thus far IMHO. It does say up top "The focus of this thread is for folks to gather and watch the Live Feeds and talk about what's happening right now in the house (or at least within the last few hours)". And this is well within that time frame. I am very confused why this isn't ok?

I was watching/listening to the live feeds earlier today, and she was asking about carbs in the "slop" and how it was labeled "no sugar," and one of the guys was talking about how that meant no carbs (which isn't true) but clearly, she was looking for some carbs, knowing she needed them, and wasn't getting them. And, agreed, never roll someone on to their back, but also, never leave them laying on an arm...a guy in my dorm from college passed out laying on an arm and lost the arm above the elbow because of it. (No blood circulation for too long, but please understand this was some time ago.)

Many things were probably handled wrong in that situation. The HGs are not medically trained and it would seem BB didn't respond very quickly. I think garnereing info without all the facts, or after the facts, won't really help us understand any of this any better. I think lots and lots of people panic in situations like this. I don't think anything any of the HGs did, in so far as turning Amanda over or whatever, was anything horrible as I'm sure none of them are aware of what to do in such a case. I do think that BB should have responded more quickly and in a more professional manner. I don't think Amanda was trying to cheat. I have no idea what the heck happened with Allison.

The topic of her fainting is really considered a "major event" and should have its own thread because it is huge...as well, the debating that had started was not good. Hope that helps!
