A member asked:
I am allergic to shrimp, i accidentally ate 5 friday night and my chest has hurt since and is hard to breathe at times?

Go to ER: If you have trouble breathing, you need to get to the ER to get checked. Usually allergic reaction to food would subside within a few hours however. In the future, pay attention to what you eat (even food cooked in oil contaminated by shrimp ). Be sure to have epinephrine autoinjector with you at all times in case of accidental exposure in the future.
