Brief Answer:
Minor allergic reaction
Detailed Answer:
Dear Ma'am , I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns but it seems that you are experiencing a minor allergic reaction to lobesters. I would recommend that you take an antihistaminic as citrizine once daily before going to bed together with an antispasmodic as visceralgine .. if you experience diarrhea then you should take imoduim three times daily .. if you experience any of the warning signs of allergy such as rash, body swelling or difficulty breathing then go to the hospital as soon as possible to get a dexamethasone and an avil shot to abort the allergic attack . I hope I answered your question . if you don't have any other clarifications then please close the discussion.
