question about YT prep

If you had a true anaphylactic reaction I wouldn't think you would go near it again.

I was a little shaky the first time I tried it again but I was pretty sure of why I had the reaction and I love fish. Now what I do is take a bite and wait a little while to see if anything feels weird. The first time I should have recognized the stuffiness of the allergic reaction. I was just worried about getting to work by midnight. So I ignored the symptoms. I also shouldn't have driven myself to the hospital, when I got checked my blood pressure was something like 50 over 20, the nurse kept checking it because she couldn't believe I walked in under my own power. If I have another bad reaction I will be done with YT but there are other fish out there to catch and eat, and I love fishing. I'm chomping at the bit to try LJ.

Sounds like Scombroid poisoning. Name comes from tuna (scombridae) but it occurs in other fish not chilled enough. Bacterial buildup which produces histadine which is converted to histamine which causes anaphalactic reaction in normally non allergic people.
