The (Near) Anaphylactic Shock, part 2

Dammit. I did it again. I ate a peanut. Peanuts are for some fucked up reason lethal to me, and in the past 26 years I've only done it once before. Which incidentally wasn't all that long ago. The trend is disturbing.
Anyway, last time I got rashes all over my body along with some nasty breathing problems which slowly went away after some self medication. This time, however, I had to get my arse down to the city's emergency reception as it seemed to be escalating rather out of hand.
Two shots of dubious medication injected intra-muscularly (yes, ass cheek) and one hour rest, and I was good to go but still--being hypersensitive to nuts sucks. 90kg vs 10g. One nut, and it may potentially be the end.
Note to self: Never ever taste a bite of coworker's slightly suspiciously looking cake (I suspected almonds--which I can eat in small amounts) out of politeness without first asking what's in it. Nuts are bad, mkay?

So do you keep an EpiPen handy (or would it not help?)

Anyway, I should probably speak with the doc about one, although I don't plan on eating any more peanuts.
