Former US international gymnast turned Philippines star Levi Jung-Ruivivar is on the mend after suffering a “severe allergic reaction” during an evening walk at the Paris Olympics on Monday. The 18-year-old has a tree nut allergy but said she does not believe she ingested the allergen. Aware it was anaphylaxis, Jung-Ruivivar returned to her room and called her parents while her roommate Aleah Finnegan went out in search of the Olympic Village emergency clinic.

“It was definitely a stressful night and something that I’ll remember for the rest of my life.” Jung-Ruivivar carries her EpiPen everywhere but has only ever needed to use the life-saving device once before. “It was really scary because I was having a really hard time breathing,” she said. The teenager said she needed two weeks to recover before returning to training after the previous anaphylactic reaction.
