Maraya1969 (10,728 posts) So I accidentally stuck myself with an epi-pen today and called 911 and they came and I was alone and my heart was racing and one of them said they would rather take me to the hospital than leave me alone because of that. I think they called them PVC's that I was having. I felt like an idiot. So how did I accidently stick myself you ask? Well they give you 2 of them and one is to train with. I found it today and thought it was the training one. It wasn't. Epi-pins, (sp) are used if you have a severe allergy to something that could be life threatening is you don't have immediate treatment. It is to stop alaphalactic shock and death. I have heard this statement many times in my life: "Only you. This could only happen to you".
magical thyme (6,746 posts) 5. Gaaah! Don't do that again! Seriously, they (whoever they are) should mark the training one clearly. If you still have it, get a marker and label it in big, bold print "TRAINING." And don't ever do that again Thank goodness you are ok.

Alaphalactic?
I think they called them PVC's that I was having.
Dear DUmbasses,The training ones ARE clearly marked TRAINING DEVICE. The real ones are not, and have a green/colored label.ETA: The two, side by side:
Perhaps the Dummy thought the EpiPen would give him a nice high ??
This is almost as stupid a post as the one by the DUmmie who found a stray pill on the floor and decided it was a good idea to take it.Too bad this kind of stupidity isn't fatal.
That thread was a hoot. I think it was just last year.
And those window lickers want to rule us.Double Dog Facepalm
