Yesterday afternoon I started feeling a bit itchy on the palms, (supposedly a sign that you will soon come into money) and the itchiness soon spread to my whole body. That evening I was watching TV and felt my lips getting bigger. They soon got so big that I had difficulty talking properly. I got some antihistamines from the chemist but they seemed to have no effect. In the morning my lips were as puffy as ever and I took a different type of antihistamine. Within an hour the swelling started to drop and it was completely gone by late afternoon.

Unfortunately the only photo I took was just before going to the chemist and this was not at the height of the problem. I didn’t eat anything strange or come into contact with strange substances so I still don’t know what caused it.
