No, although I did kick myself for taking one more dose– I’d felt funny and had started getting hives and my solution was to take another pill, like a dummy. But fortunately I wasn’t reacting so violently; I woke up the next morning looking horrifying, and promptly called my doctor and was given an immediate appointment and when the nurse saw me she full-body recoiled away, which was– gratifying but terrifying?
They didn’t give me a shot in the butt, either, but I got a Z-pack of steroids and a full course of another antibiotic. I only had two pills left in the first set, and I saved them for a while, thinking it would be funny to like encase them in resin and make them into earrings, but I never did.
I’ve never before or since made a nurse literally recoil in horror from my visage, I tell you what.
It gives me something to do now, when medical professionals ask me if I have any allergies. “Sulfa!” and they’re always like “ah yes” because everyone knows you don’t just spontaneously know about an allergy, there’s always at least an element of The Hard Way in there.
