My Labs Indicated Klebsiella Oxytoca. I Rec'd RX Sulfamethoxazole. Alittle

My labs indicated Klebsiella Oxytoca. I rec'd RX sulfamethoxazole. Alittle over two hours later I broke out in hives. Pjoned my MD. Stopped the drug and took Benadryl. Urticaria resolved. Today took the Sulfa Drug, after 4 hours only one wheal but generalized itchiness. Could it have been the toxins released by the death of K.o. or should I consider myself allergic to sulfa drugs?
