Two patients experience breathing difficulties in Pennington County, Pennington County SD


Emergency responders arrived near Milano Street in Pennington County to assist two patients. A 38-year-old woman was conscious but had difficulty breathing and swallowing due to an allergic reaction possibly related to medication after a pneumonia diagnosis. She had taken Benadryl. A male patient was also conscious but had trouble speaking between breaths. He had been unconscious earlier that morning and is undergoing dialysis treatment. Neither patient showed signs of asthma or lung problems.
