penicillin? i got a shot of penicillin today for strep.
when i was leaving the doctor's office, i got dizzy, my body fealt completely numb and i threw up.
the nurse said it happens sometimes, but now my heart is doing something weird.
it's beating really hard, or fast, or something.
i thought it was just the penicillin being absorbed, but i'm not sure.
is that normal, or should i be worried?

your getting paranoid about the penecillin when you become parranoid you increase the amount of oxygen to the brain (your heart rate goes up to get more oxygen to the brain) it also depends on which penicillin you took some contain caffiene which can effect the heart rate dont worry it should wear off ]
I think you are allergic to penicillin. I am, and when I took it I did the same thing. So I would talk to your doctor about it, because if you are allergic, then this can make you extremely sick. I think it's better to be safe, than sorry. ]
It sounds like this is the first time you have taken penicillin. Many people are allergic to penicillin including me. It's very possible that you are too. Call 911 and get to a hospital as soon as you possibly can. This is very serious. You could be having a heart attack! I hope that everything turns out ok for you. Good luck! ]
You need to go tell your parents. They need to call your doctor and get you to the ER to be checked out.
Right now, do not delay.
I have been an Emergency Medical Technician for many years. I want to tell you that ANYTIME your body is doing something that is not normal for you, then it needs to be checked by a doctor.
So you need to get it checked out. Go tell mom and dad about it. You could be having an allergic reaction to penicillin, which is not uncommon, but is an emergency.
Go right now. And please let us know you are okay so we don't worry about you. :) ]
Hello there,
Call your doctor immediately. I am not a doctor, but I can tell you from experience that absolutley nothing weird should be happening to you.
I had a really bad go around with strep when I was a kid. I saw a few people with mild, and not so mild reactions.
The reactions to antibiotics can be really sudden and sever, you need to be in touch with medical people right this very minute. Do not wait.
Tell whoever is in the house with you right this second, since it is possible to be disabled by such a reaction. If they don't know what is happening they can't help you.
If your parents can't reach your doctor, call 911 and tell them EXACTLY what you have posted here. They will know what to do.
You need to do this right away. Please do not wait even another minute.
Never take chances with your health. The 911 people will not be mad if you call them, that is what they are there for.
Now:
1) Tell whoever is in the house
2) Get on the phone to your doctor
3) Call 911 and tell them that you had a shot of penecillin, and tell them exactly what is happening to you.
They will have someone to take care of you.
Do this NOW.
When you feel better, leave somefeedback and tell me how you did.
DN.
Remember... NOW. ]
penicillin is to kill the virus or the so called infection. The nurse should have told you the side affects about this anti.. I have taken this a lot and it never has happened to me. I suggest that you call the doctor. Hope i helped. ]
