Baltimore and terrible Allergy...

Finally We went Baltimore this Saturday!!
We went National Aquarium, World trade center Building, B&O Railroad Museum, and a park (I do not know the name, but it is a nice location on the hill.We could see the beautiful inner harber from the park and it was really nice!!)
All of them was interesting, however I had a serious & terrible thing on my body after coming back. So my memory about Baltimore is now concentrated to that terrible thing...

What happened on my body is ""Food(crab? Spice?) Allergy"". We ate a lot of crab!! Steamed crab is popular in Baltimore, So I really wanted to eat some crabs!! To eat good crab, I searched the good restaurant before, then we ate them in a poplar restaurant. We ordered a dozen crab and ate 8 pieces there. (we brought remaining 4 pieces to our home.) We spent very nice time there and we were satisfied eating a lot of good crab!!

It was happend about after 6 hours after eating some crabs. When we watched DVD (King Kong) in our house, I was getting to have a stuffy nose and itch my body. However it was fun to watch King Kong that I tried to ignore what happened on my body. When we finished to watch King Kong, my body had changed seriously.

First, my husbund reallized my right eyelid swelled about 10 times bigger than usual, then I found many red eruption everywere in my body (じんましん）. The erupition accompanied with terrible itches. I can not say how terrible it was, because it was too bad. I took a medicine (Histamin blocker) which brought from Japan, however the effect was small. Can you imagine how I spent following a few hours?

This is the first time to know that I have some food allergy. However I never had crab allergy in Japan. Because Maryland crab is steamed with a lot of spices, some kind of spices might cause an allergy to my body. I do not know the real reason. But I will never try to eat maryland crab any more. Actually I like crab very much, so I try to eat crab in Japan!!!

p.s. My right eyelid is still swelling 5 times more than usual. If this swelling lasts tommorrow, I do not want to go my lab. Because my face is really ugly. I hope it is getting better until tommorrow morning!!
