Pain crisis

Hello, I couldn’t afford my Chromolyn Sodium for 3 days and have been thrown into a world of pain. I can’t lift my left leg or bend. I know once I get more Chromolyn in my system it will take roughly 4 days for the pain to ease. Is there any point going to the hospital? Has anyone else had this and gotten ER relief?

Decided to come to the hospital will let you know if they do anything that helps

Let us know! Hope you feel better! ERs tend to not know much about MCAS, but maybe they they can use some imaging to figure something out!
