Student, 24, nearly went blind and lost NINETY PER CENT of her skin after suffering allergic reaction to common anti-seizure drug
Khaliah Shaw (left, before her allergic reaction) was a public health graduate student at Georgia College and State University when she was reportedly diagnosed with bipolar disorder and prescribed the medication, Lamotrigine (inset), in 2013. Within a month of taking the drug, she had developed a rash on her face, while the skin on her lips had started to peel off. After her condition deteriorated, Miss Shaw was rushed to hospital and placed in a medically-induced coma. When she awoke, she had lost up to 90 per cent of her skin (right), all of her hair and her eyesight was left damaged.
