Answers:
Other person answering is just about right on. I would only add that it might be best to have someone drive you to ER or ride with you on bus or what ever.
But if you are having any other symptoms, especially difficulty breathing or swelling of your tong you should call 911 and tell them 1) your symptoms and 2) exactly where you are. Road / street, address, where you are in the house, or your apartment number. and 3) if you can reach it, unlock your door so the responders can get to you.
