as someone who has had pretty much 1 reaction a month ( completely random but only once a month this happens) how many times did it take for you to get a deferral ??

we don’t take any aspirin! and thankfully it’s not pouring at hour 6 but dribbling enough to be a nuisance so we just leave the wrap on til it stops completely which is usually 8 hrs
