Anaphylaxis, or anaphylactic shock, is a sudden catastrophic allergic reaction that involves the whole body. It usually occurs within minutes of exposure to the offending allergen (insect stings, nuts and medicines being the commonest causes).
Possible cause
Some professionals have linked the recent rise in people suffering severe allergic reactions including anaphylaxic shock to adverse reactions to vaccines. DPT in particular has been linked as has the HPV vaccine Gardasil.
