One more pre-ER question

My instructions are not to eat or drink after midnight tonight.  My allergies are going crazy tonight.  Is it okay to take some benadryl tonight?

I would say definitely not. The reason is because of the anesthesia. You should have an empty stomach for that reason. The less in it the better. Plus I don't know how the medicine would/could react with the anesthesia.

I agree with pp, don't take anything that the dr has not approved.  You never know that the interactions can be.  Can you call the dr on call if its that bad?

I would say no, sorry. I know how terrible allergies can be.

thanks ladies.  I didn't take anything, but I made DH turn off the fan b/c I think it was just pushing the pollen in my face.  I'm doing a little better!
