but wasn't aware that they could flare back up from stress. That's really scary.

We have almost lost my sister twice now due to IV contrast, she has a violent reaction. I had a really bad reaction to it myself the last time. No more for me. It's awful to think that things like sulfa meds and contrast, which can be helpful for so many, can be lethal for others. And often you don't know you have a problem, until you're in the midst of a serious reaction.
