10 days ago my DD 2.5 had an anaphylactic shock. We were rushed to A&E where she was treated and kept in for 24hours.
We was unaware of her peanut allergy. It has come as a shock. She tried some of our satay sauce, when her lip swelled within minutes. We've been given epi pens and training. Had further blood tests and won't get results for 2 months.
Since this, I have been a bag of nerves. I don't think I've coped very well. I keep crying and have been quite paranoid. I just want to watch her all day. I'm just so scared of this happening again.
I know how to read food labels and I'm fully determined that we will never need the epi pens.
But when does this feeling end? When I feel more comfortable with it? Does it get easier with time? My stomach's tied in knots.
TIA
