exhausted after allergic reaction?

I had a pretty bad reaction to shellfish today. I haven't had one in years from shellfish, for some reason it comes an goes. after the first initial breakouts of hives, I got extremely tired, sluggish, headache, and just not feeling right. this was about 2 hours after the response. is this normal? tried looking up on google, but I couldn't really get a specific answer.

I think if you have a concern about the way you feel following a bad allergic reaction you should really, seriously, honestly direct it to a medical professional who is treating you in person. This is a scary question to try to answer online.

Could it be the allergy medicine? Benadryl is often used to help people fall asleep, and it's main ingredient is what most OTC sleep aids use.

Oh my, allergic reactions to food can vary...could be mild one time...the next could be deadly. Please see your doctor and ask about obtaining an epi-pen.
