What Causes Tiredness After Allergic Reaction To Ant Bite?

I had a severe allergic reaction to an ant bite about a week and a half ago. Blood pressure dropped to 70/63 and was rushed to the ER and was given loads of Benadryl, went through 2 bags of fluid and had to be put on oxygen. I m still very tired though, I have this running exhaustion feeling. My question is- how long is this supposed to last? Is it normal for me to be feeling so tired?

hi,see allergic reaction can be immediate,late and/or delayed from which the later can be last for more than 2 days,so u might have delayed hypersensitivity/Allergic reaction due to ant bite.If this problem remains even after few weeks uand u still feel exhaustion or tired then there will be some other cause.u need to see your physician for correct diagnosis but dont worry nothing serious,u will be alright.
