Evening, had a horrendous reaction at the hairdressers yesterday. Dye was only in 5 minutes and I came out in a rash all over my chest and neck, scratchy throat.
hairdresser washed it off immediately. Within minutes I started vomiting and shaking uncontrollably. It was awful. Someone called for an ambulance and was administered IV antihistamine, anti sickness and a steroid. Monitored for hours and discharged on oral steroids.
Today, I'm fine but completely shaken by the experience. Worried that this may happen again...... and gutted that I may have to embrace my greys 😅
Any one have experience of this? It wasn't a full blown anaphylactic response but certainly a systemic response, scary enough to experience and have no wish for a repeat!
