Is This A Allergic Reaction To Eggs Having Symptoms Of Tightness In Chest And Throat, Producing Excess Saliva Causing To Gag?

All I have had today was a juice I normally prepare to replace my priming breakfast but today I am not sure if I had an allergic reaction or what. But my chest got tight and throat as well. I started producing excess saliva and had to keep spitting which was causing me to gag and dry heave. After reading others analysis on similar symptoms, people are saying it s an anxiety attack or something like that. But I know I am slightly allergic to eggs and almonds which I put in my juice. Normally I don t have this reaction. What s wrong and what should I do?

Hello

Thanks for the query

The symptoms you are having right now it quite atypical and does not really indicate a particular diagnosis right away. I strongly recommend that you approach the ER and get the following tests done
1. ECG
2. Tropt T and CKMB
3. Absolute eosinophil count
4. Complete blood count
5. Chest x ray

I also advice you not to have food items which you are allergic to. It is sometimes life threatening

I hope I was of help

Regards
