How do you feel after an allergic reaction?

I had an allergic reaction to anti-biotics and I feel tired and my muscles feel very achy is this normal?

I also feel quite jittery....

Yes, that sounds within the bounds of my normal. I also find the anti-histimines, steroids, whatever I take can make me feel worse, like a drug hangover, than the original reaction sometimes. Hope you feel better soon.

came to post simply "knackered and hungover"
looks like you've already discovered. keep up antihistamine
tons of vit C seems to do wonders round here (allergic dc too)

btw katy what were you allergic to? (nosey) Make sure that and any related ab's get put on your records (am allergic to erythromycin and apparently that rules out a couple of other things Confused ) If you post here or elsewhere for a nice chemisty type person to advise? Thanks
