Chirokinetics in Anaphylaxia

Karl age 21

Karl experienced his first anaphylactic attack on the19th May 2001 due to peanuts. He immediately became ill and required emergency treatment, consisting of adrenaline, oxygen and was given an EpiPen.

Karl received four treatments for his anaphylaxia to peanuts in June 2004. CKT testing indicated Karl to be below the anaphylactic threshold before having a blood test in July 2004 which revealed the following:

Results: 5th July 2004

Total IgE 36.95 normal range (0.2 – 180)
(IgEPanel VII)
SIgE
Reference range 0 - 6

Nut mix 3
Peanut 3

Reference range 0= negative 1= borderline 6= strongly positive

Although Karl’s total IgE was within normal range (36.93) the SIgE for peanut indicated further treatment was necessary and four more treatments were administered. On the 4th December 2004 Karl accidentally ate a peanut, an unexpected ingredient in a fruit cake.

Karl says “I was very surprised even shocked when I realised I had eaten a peanut and although I felt OK I phoned David on his mobile. By this time over three hours had lapsed since eating the peanut, but David advised that I should contact my doctor straight away. “Thames Doc” deal with out of hours calls in my area and had provided emergency treatment for my previous anaphylactic attack. The doctor I spoke to quickly assessed my medical history and was very puzzled, I was told to stay by the phone and they would call back. By the time they returned my call, four hours had lapsed and I was symptom free, but still anxious. Because previously I had reacted very quickly, turning blue in less than twenty minutes, they decided that the treatment I had received must have had a positive effect and that I should take a dose of antihistamine and go to bed. I was further advised to contact the paramedics directly if I felt worse during the night. Fortunately I was fine both during the night and the following day”.

Karl was given a follow up treatment on 9th December 2004, and in April 2005 he was again unlucky. This time it was peanut oil, which had provoked his first attack in May 2001. Karl experienced no ill effects whatsoever, in fact no symptoms of any kind were present.
