While egg allergies can indeed cause severe anaphylactic reactions, the severity varies from person to person. Anaphylaxis symptoms can include:

• Trouble breathing
• Difficulty swallowing
• Sudden drop in blood pressure
• Confusion and dizziness
• Throat/chest tightness
• Loss of consciousness

If you experience any of these symptoms, seek emergency medical help immediately. After an anaphylactic reaction, some people may experience a second reaction (called biphasic) up to 12 hours later. This is why it's crucial to get emergency medical treatment even after using epinephrine.

For your safety, work closely with an allergist to create a management plan. They can perform specific allergy tests and provide guidance on avoidance strategies and emergency response protocols.
