I Was Taken To The ER This Morning | STORY TIME (S12-Ep12)

Last night while eating my favorite snack, I apparently ate a grease ant, but he ate me first. I'm terribly allergic so I had a rough night trying to mitigate the symptoms. This morning I called for a same day appointment, but the lady who makes the appointments had me triaged on the phone by a nurse who instructed me to go the the ER.

I'm glad that you're feeling better!

[@TheBarePantryShow]

I look normal again. The site of the bite is sore and numb, but I'm so grateful for the meds.

I was staying at an airbnb in San Antonio, TX while working remote and I didn't realize how serious ant swarms can get. I had food in my room but I always made sure I kept everything clear of crumbs and food packages sealed. I had some lays bbq chips sitting on top of the microwave and noticed a few ants around the bag. I killed them not thinking much else and sure enough those suckers were still in the bag even after it was clipped and seal. I had the same thing happen with cereal, so I started putting everything in the refrigerator.

[@TheBarePantryShow]

I don’t ever ear in my room because I’m so afraid they will get in my bed, but I did have that chips bag stashed on that shelf. We’re looking into buying more airtight containers and I’m looking for one huge airtight tub to put our baked good into. Like you, I’ve put everything in the fridge right now. The sweetest thing to see when I got home is my daughter Jada making her concoction spraying it everywhere to get them suckers. She checked the couch before I could sit.

[@sweetypatnett6123]

I hope you're doing ok. 😍

[@TheBarePantryShow]

Much better tonight Miss Margaret. Almost 100% better.

[@Lady_Clare4]

I’m glad you’re ok. 🌷Researching your condition was a smart thing to do. Your body is sensitive to a lot of things. (I have a relative that can’t do any bubble baths or those fancy body washes.She’ll have to make a bee line trip to the doctor.)

[@sarahbrower2453]

Oh I got your book

[@TheBarePantryShow]

Yay! Thank you.

[@sarahbrower2453]

Hey I hope you’re ok 🙁🙁

[@sarahbrower2453]

Cortisone cream is good

[@TheBarePantryShow]

I put some last night too. I think the only thing that eased the pain was Vicks.

[@karlagaskin5964]

Oh no you are going through so much...Now you can't even take the meds that will help you right away...BLESSINGS Babs!!!

[@TheBarePantryShow]

Hey Karla Darlin. Thank Got the 2 meds they gave me worked. I'm doing pretty good right now.

[@lucygordon1296]

Oh! No! I hope the inflammation has gone away. My husband is deadly allergic to bee stings and his mom being a doctor recommended ice immediately to localize the venom. I hope you are okay Barb💖

[@TheBarePantryShow]

@@lucygordon1296 I’m doing good tonight Lucy. The part where I got bitten or stung is was the last numb part. Now it feels sore only. The meds worked thank God.

[@taharaakmal2367]

Good to know you’re doing much better now!!!

[@TheBarePantryShow]

I'm so grateful to all of you for your prayers and advice. Only one small spot is still swollen, but nothing to cry about.

[@phyllisgabourel7506]

I am so sorry for what happened to you wishing you all the best !

[@TheBarePantryShow]

@@phyllisgabourel7506 the meds are working Phyllis praise God.

[@ursaltydog]

Ants are acting crazy everywhere. I live in Tennessee, and they're everywhere... coming inside like they are starving for water and food..

[@TheBarePantryShow]

Wow, do you think it’s the heat?

[@ursaltydog]

@@TheBarePantryShow Insects like other insects, birds, aquatic life and other lifeforms operate with the earth's magnetic field to know where they're going. To find their homes and previous mating locales. Every species who depends on the earth's magnetic field has been going crazy lately. Like in different areas than they are supposed to be. The earth's magnetic field has been weakening at 5% per decade now. With the geostorms we've had this past year (G2), and even on Mother's day, should not have produced aurora down to New Caledonia below the equator in the Pacific Ocean. Even the Carrington event didn't produce that in 1859. And that's when the field started weakening. With these changes, the energetic electrons and heavy proton bombardment at our poles is increasing, decimating the ozone levels that protect us, flora and fauna, insects, fish, from these harmful rays.
