anaphalaxis!!

by melissa2009, Sep 07, 2007 12:17AM
i got a question if someone was having an allergic reaction you know anaphalaxis and they started panicking would that help to save there life. because iv heard that when people have an allergic reaction that they are suppose to inject adrenaline so i was thinking that if you start panicking then you can get you bodies adrenaline going and save your life. obviously you get more adrenaline from an injection than you can produce in your body naturally but i was just wondering if getting the bodies natural adrenaline going could help with an allergic reaction.

your body cannot produce enough adrenaline to fight off an allergic reaction thats why they give you a shot of adrenaline if you happen to develope anaphalaxis. hey babyprayers epinephrine is adrenaline its just another name that they use.
