allergic reaction

anyone ever had an allergic reaction to LORTAB aka hydrocodone with acetomeniphine (spelling?) ... if so please tell me what you experienced. i dont mean an overdose or anything like taht, just taking what is perscribed and having an allergic reaction.

Can you explain symptoms you might be having and then I can probably help you out.  I have had quite a bit of experience with allergic reactions.  Let me know.

I took lortab, slept for 2-3 hrs got up and then went to shower. got extremely nauseous, lightheaded and dizzy, and then couldnt breath, and passed out. then i preceeded to hit my head got a concussion and had a seizure. husband found me, as he heard me and the bottles around me fall.

I only took 1 as perscribed. I have been on lortab before the last time i had my wisdom teeth out. as i had 2 removed at a time. this last time, which was back in sept, that is when all of this occurred, my husband, dr and i thought it was just an allergic reaction to the meds, but its never been confirmed, bc of course i dont want to take the lortab again.

It almost sounds to me like anxiety might have taken over.  It happens to me and causes me to hyperventilate and pass out.  I've stuggled with anxiety disorder for years and often when I have to take meds I get very anxious and actually bring on the panic.  I would have to say any allergic reaction I have ever seen has involved rash, hives, difficulty breathing, etc.  It really doesn't sound like an allergy to me.  I am not a doctor though so don't write this in stone.

ive never had any anxiety problems, at all. i used to have febrile seizures when i was a toddler, and havent had any problems since, but now i am wondering if maybe i have a seizure problem or something. since this incedent ive had a constant headache, nausea on and off (for LONG LONG PERIODS) and some blurred vision. I went for an MRI and I dont know the results yet. Even though my dr had the preliminary results almost all day. I just dont know whats going on. its worrying both me and my husband who is leaving for Iraq in less than 20 days. We are also worried the mri wont find anything and then that will put us back at square one. we just want to know whats going on and would like to know asap so my husband doesnt worry about my health while he cant do anything about it and also so i can start feeling better. i also have a muscle spasm in the back of my neck and i am only really nauceous when i move and after i sit down when i have been moving alot before sitting down. i also wake up in the middle of the night sometimes with a bad headache.
any ideas? esp since this doesnt seem like an allergic reaction and i honestly dont think it was anxiety, but thanks for the thought on that... any other ideas? or thoughts?
