A member asked:
Can anaphylaxis go away on its own, without emergency treatment?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: True anaphylaxis is a life threatening emergency by definition. There are other forms of allergy that are less serious, and some are called "anaphylactoid" but true anaphylaxis requires emergency treatment.
