Exclusive: A 3-year-old girl was hospitalized after a Qatar Airways flight attendant allegedly served her a Kit Kat bar, despite being told the child was severely allergic to dairy
1976, 5-yo me in the ER for whatever I was infected with, nurse about to give me liquid penicillin, parents:
“We don’t know if he’s allergic to penicillin.”
Nurse: “Nonsense.”
Bottoms up! I vaguely remember being fucked up. Been putting PCN allergy on medical forms since.
Interestingly, my dentist gave it to me anyway after wisdom teeth removal. Zero issue. Took it again a few year later, hives. Took it again in my 40s, no issue. I suspect I’m no longer allergic.
