My heart felt like it was pounding, I was hot and sweating.
After 10 minutes or so, I felt increasingly dizzy and my vision started fading.

It became difficult to swallow and my tongue was feeling fat.
A Rapid Response Team was alerted, they started and IV, and took me to the Emergency Department.
