Not normal: You are obviously allergic to sulfa. In addition to taking Benadryl (diphenhydramine) ask your soctor about taking a short course of steroids.

No: Sounds like an allergic reaction. This could be a sulfa allergy. Please let your doctor know.

Not normal: You should talk with your doctor about this reaction. You may need some steroids to help you recover from this allergic reaction. Don't wait.
