A member asked:
I may be allergic to beef. when trying to eat it, it gets caught in my throat, i cough it up and i can't swallow anything until i get a benadryl (diphenhydramine) shot.

Could be: Although rare, avoid beef for now, keep epinephrine (epipen) and benadryl (diphenhydramine) handy, after seeing your doctor, then get referred to an allergist, check aaaai.org or acaai.org for an allergist in your area, good luck
