Apparently you have an internet connection so I'm confused why you didn't search the web for an answer. A couple of keystrokes and like magic the answer is yours.
Your best bet is to find a website/talk to your doctor with medical knowledge than just talking to people without a degree in the medical field.
You may think I'm being sarcastic but allergies especially shellfish can be FATAL. If this was your first time getting an allergic reaction from seafood do not eat. It may be your life.

a lot of people who suffer from fish allergies have to be very careful as they are very dangerous. those who suffer may go into something called anaphylactic shock which can be deadly if not treated quickly.
but there are two types of seafood:
- fish - regular fish
- shellfish (lobster, shrimp, scallops, crab)
why fish allergies?
Some people have an allergy to fish or shellfish. These are quite common allergies and can sometimes cause severe reactions. People who are allergic to one type of fish often react to other types as well. Cooking fish doesn’t make someone with a fish allergy less likely to react. People who are allergic to one type of shellfish, such as prawns, crabs, mussels or scallops, often react to other types too.
The pollutants found in oily fish are called dioxins and PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls). Dioxins and PCBs tend to be found in all foods containing fats. They have no immediate effect on health, but can be harmful if they build up in our bodies over time.

So it wasn't thoroughly uncooked...purely a splash undercooked, at worst. you're probable ok. do no longer ignore, many kinds of sushi use uncooked, thoroughly uncooked fish, and that's ok. the unique objective of marinading meats replace into to assist kill off the nasties in it which could make us sick. Cooking meat additionally kills off those nasties. So i does no longer complication. do exactly no longer make it a habit.
