Cathy,

Thanks for responding - I immediately started going over everything I ingested in that time frame and came up with nothing unusual or different. The swelling in my tongue has gone away completely within the last 36 hours - so I am assuming I had a reaction to something in the medication whether it be the active or an inactive ingredient. I'll know more tomorrow when I talk to the doctor I guess.
