i am extremely allergic to penicillin and got prescribed a sister antibiotic (which I know not to accept now!), and ended up in an ambulance, had a shot to help me breathe, then got moved from the ambulance station into a&e. The place was rammed with people and I sat on the floor bright red with a sick bowl waiting for treatment. It was embarrassing and horrible. I felt like an asylum seeker and not in a good way.
