I took one or two doses of an over the counter version of Nexium a few weeks ago. That night I just... freaked out. I didn't have a rash anywhere, but I itched like mad. I thought there were bugs all over me and... well, I was miserable.
I just sat were it was coldest in the house because being really cold seemed to take the focus off of scratching.
Anyway, the symptoms lessened the next day- I suspected it was the pill and stopped it immediately- and by the third day my problem was gone.
The thing is... do I have to put this in all my medical paperwork now? My doctor said to stay away from that medication, that I had a heck of a reaction.
Since it went away immediately...When I'm a the doctors and they say 'are you allergic to any medications?', do I need to mention it?
