Yesterday at pick up one of my dcms went from totally normal to emergency room ill. 1dcb was already dressed in shoes and coat when mom looked up and I instantly knew something wasn't right. I took off lo's shoes and enticed him upstairs with a tv show ( usually off limits but this was an emergency) and I knew nothing else would get him away from mom since he thought he was going home.
Mom turned bright red, huge pupils, racing heart. I got her to the couch and asked her if she wanted ice/something to drink etc. I asked her if she wanted me to call 911 but she said no. She is an md so she was being stubborn and trying to self diagnose. I called her hubs and told him to pick her up asap and take her to ER. I also had my husband come home from work (2 min away) in case I needed his help with her or the kids.
All the kids were completely obliv to what was going on. Dcd came and picked dcm up and took her to the ER. She was conscious, verbal responsive, normal breathing etc the whole time but looked like someone drugged her. She was talking slow and had trouble piecing together what she did prior to coming. Apparently she took some antibiotics in the car on the way to pick up kids for a sinus infection she has and was allergic to them. Within an hour or so she was fine. We were all thankful she took them before picking up the kids and not
while driving home.
Scared me for sure. I have never had this happen before.

. I'm so glad she's feeling better now and that they figured out what caused her reaction!
