ASK AN EXPERT
Q: Are there any warning signs that will tell me I am going to have an attack?
A: Attacks are often unpredictable, but you may be able to sense their onset. You will learn to recognize symptoms that herald an attack for you. Common symptoms are fatigue, tingling, nausea, rumbling, bowel movement changes, flu-like feelings, or a non-itchy rash with pale colored centers. A hoarse throat, whistling or wheezing, coughing or shortness of breath may be the first signs of a life-threatening laryngeal attack. People who experience these symptoms should get emergency help as soon as possible.
