đ€Ż INCRĂVEL: âAllergic To Allergy Medicationâ: 73 Allergies That Sound Impossible But Arenât đČ
Poison Ivy. Yeah yeah, I’ve heard it all before. “Everyone is allergic to poison ivy!”
Not like I am.
I’ve caught it from smoke, when someone burned a patch to clear it out. I can get it if I go swimming in a pond that had poison ivy runoff. And I don’t get it like you get it. You probably just get a rash that itches locally. I have to go to the hospital to get steroids and plastic surgery because my skin turns into scales. Every summer, while growing up, I got steroids to take just because poison ivy was in my area and those steroids would help me fight it.
I’ve gotten poison ivy from touching a gas pump after someone else doing yard work used it. I’ve gotten poison ivy so bad the doctor thought about putting me into a coma to wait out the pain of it.
I moved to high altitude where there isn’t any poison ivy.
The best Poison Ivy/Poison Oak cure I’ve come across:
When you first notice the rash, take a shower immediately in cold water (you’ve got 10 minutes from first contact). Scrub with soap. After the shower, mix equal parts rubbing alcohol and vinegar and apply it to the rash after the shower.
You’ll smell terrible, but after an hour the rash is completely gone and so is the itching. Repeat as necessary.
Chlorohexadine, more commonly known as Chloroprep. It’s the agent to sterilize (?) an area before surgery. Holy hell does it make my skin break out in the worst rash imaginable, and if not treated quickly, spreads to my entire body and inevitably, without fail, develops impetigo.
Only took 6 years but it FINALLY got added to my medical record, which has been a huge help bc even before it was I would specifically state multiple times to use iodine ONLY, but chloroprep would still be used bc of some miscommunication somewhere. Now anytime I have to go to the doc they see it and confirm it. God bless that nurse who finally got it added!
I’m allergic to the adhesives in Band-Aids and other common bandages. Officially it went on my file as “allergic contact dermatitis” but it really is only an issue when I come into contact with bandages.
Basically it means I have to buy really specific, harder to find bandages. Most of the supposedly hypoallergenic ones are not so hypoallergenic for me, and I also can’t have the ones that have medicine in them (like the Band-Aid ones with Neosporin already on the pad, for example). The hydrocolloid ones they have now are okay for short durations, or I can do gauze for bigger cuts/ scrapes.
Just because an allergy isnât rare doesnât mean that it isnât potent or cannot negatively impact your day. Even common allergies can significantly reduce the quality of your life, and should be treated seriously.
If theyâre left ignored, they can lead to even worse health outcomes.
âHay fever is a major problem, and itâs often trivialised by those who donât have it. If you think about what we do in life, we work, we sleep, and we have fun. And all of those things are seriously impacted by hay fever,â clinical allergist Stephen Durham, emeritus professor of allergy and respiratory medicine at Imperial College London and Royal Brompton Hospital, explained to the BBC.
I developed a respiratory allergy to paper (no clue to what exactly in it, specialist said no real way to test it either).
Had to drop out of university because they couldn’t accommodate me well enough, had to get rid of my extensive private library of fiction and non-fiction (including a ton of academic books, many of which ultimately ended up in the paper trash since no one was interested in them and I couldn’t just keep them around), had to switch from using paper notebooks to taking notes on laminated pages with non-permanent markers, can’t browse bookstores anymore.
Basically even entering someone else’s house/apartment poses a risk since I never know how much paper/how many books they have around, and whether I’ll get an asthma attack or not (and if yes, how quickly I get a reaction).
It’s very horrible, and half the time I mention it somewhere, I’m looked at as if I were inventing it just to inconvenience others/play the victim/whatever else those people think.
Working in the zoo field, I’ve encountered a lot of keepers that have discovered they are allergic to random animals. I know several people allergic to Kudu, but no other hoofstock, another is allergic to aardvarks. I’m certain these allergies are more common, but it’s not common to be exposed to exotic animals.
People who have hay fever (hi!) are more likely to face challenges both falling asleep and staying asleep. They tend to wake up more frequently at night and feel more fatigued. Whatâs more, seasonal allergies can even impact childrenâs academic performance.
Individuals with allergies can also experience more respiratory infections. Thatâs because their mucous membranes are more likely to be inflamed. âWhen it isn’t adequately treated, hay fever can cause severe, chronic upper airway disease and ear infections,â the BBC warns.
I’m allergic to allergy medication. Also bees, bandaids, lilies, water chestnuts, one kind of insect bite, and some pollen. So when I react to something, I can’t take anything for it generally, other than a steroid if the reaction is bad enough.
I’ve got oral allergy syndrome, which isn’t crazy uncommon but not many people who don’t have it know about it.
Basically my body reads the proteins of fresh fruit the same as the proteins of pollen (or whatever else gives me hay fever) and rejects them. But once the fruit is cooked, the protein structure has changed and I’m no longer allergic.
It’s also not consistent. I can’t have peaches, pears, apples, cherries, or anything like that but I’m totally fine with berries, citrus fruits, and bananas. I also have a mild allergy to carrots and tree nuts which is supposedly due to the oral allergy syndrome.
As a kid, adults would not believe me when I told them I was allergic to fresh fruit. They’d tell me I was just being picky and try to force me to eat it anyway. Like, I know the difference between “this is gross” and “my throat and mouth itch uncontrollably and my lips are numb”.
My wife is allergic to garlic. It’s not all that common but not rare enough to be unheard of. We have to be very careful about what to buy at the store. It seems like 60% of what’s on the store shelves has garlic in it in amounts she can’t handle. So we usually home make most of our foods and stick to non-garlic sources. She can’t go to certain restaurants either, because some have so much garlic that it’s everywhere.
Do you have any allergies, whether common or unusual, dear Pandas? How have they impacted your daily life, and which parts do you find the most annoying?
What do you do to cope with them, and have you ever considered immunotherapy?
Whether or not you have allergies, what do you do to stay fit and healthy?
Weâd like to hear from you! If you have a moment, swing by the comments at the bottom of this list to say âhi!â to your fellow allergy patients.
With mosquito bites, the bite and the skin can sometimes swell up to the size of a small golf ball. My mom, when I was younger, always circled the bite and swollen skin with a pen just in case I needed to go to the doctor if it spread. But holy hell the bites still get so red and feels warm to the touch and my skin would eventually bruise. I always try to stay inside during the summer.
Edit: wow I didnât expect so many people to have the same reaction! Also thanks for those offering solutions to treating these types of insect bites! Honestly my dad and sister will tease me about it as Iâm the only one in the family who actually gets bitten?? Thankfully my momâs a little more sympathetic, but summers are so rough in my area. Just being outside for 2-3 minutes means Iâll get up to 9-10 bites. But itâs fine as I get to have an excuse to stay indoors watching Netflix with the AC going!!
Not technically unusual, Iâm allergic to Dairy.
99% of people think I mean lactose intolerant, no.
Anaphylactic shock to all dairy.
If you get ice cream on my skin a painful, itchy hive/rash will occur.
On the RAST test Im a 5, as high as it gets. A 6 to goat milk(they stop counting the antibodies after a certain point because it is too much).
I have been this way since birth, so no, I do not know what pizza, chocolate, ice cream or cheese taste like.
My bones are denser than normal because I weightlift and I am frequently asked if I am a marine due to my broad build.
Eating out makes me anxious, the burn of spicy/seasoned food feels the same as a reaction and cross-contamination is a big issue.
My diet is veggies, meat and some carbs, just without sauces/condiments/butter.
Nickel. Most belt buckles and things of that nature are at least partially composed of nickel. If I don’t have my shirt tucked in, I have to wear my belt sideways, otherwise it touches my beer gut when I sit down, and makes for a very itchy rash the rest of the day.
Cinnamon. Became allergic in adulthood. Apparently it’s rare in children but more common in adults. I miss chai lattes SO DARN MUCH. I have to be careful in restaurants because cinnamon is a lovely ingredient to add to foods. Also can’t really go in JoAnn Fabrics during this time of year due to their cinnamon scented everything.
I miss you, delicious spice.
I’ve never been lucky. And I’m not talkin’ about the lottery, I’m talkin’ ’bout stuff like developing a soy allergy at thirty-five. Who gets a soy allergy at thirty-five? And why is soy in everything?
Iâm severely allergic to alcohol. Even being in a room where alcohol is present can give me a headache. Iâve always had a massive aversion towards alcohol more than other kids. The first time I tried a tiny sip of diluted wine it made nauseated, dizzy to the point of almost fainting and very short of breath. The same happened when I tried beer a year later. At that point I wasnât sure it was alcohol or something else (sulphates or congeners or something) but I wasnât planning on finding out so I just swore of alcohol all together. But in my first year of studying biology at uni there was a practical where we needed to use 70% ethanol and most people left their pots open and I got the same reaction. Thatâs how I knew for sure.
I have gotten pretty horrible remarks over it from people. People telling me Iâm overreacting (Iâm not), that one drink wonât end me (it will), one time I was told Iâm a liar and that you canât be allergic to alcohol (itâs rare but you can be).
Iâm an early twenty something in uni so alcohol is all around me. It can be a drag. There are so many events that are only about drinking and I have zero desire to participate in those events. It is no fun being sober around drunk people.
I’m allergic to omega-3. Spent years trying to figure out why I got violently ill each time I had things like salmon, tuna, lots of eggs, etc. Even the teenage development vitamins my mother got me in middle school (they had extra omega-3 for growth and each time I took one I vomited pink sludge for three days)
Asked a doctor a out it a couple years ago- she immediately said that was an extremely bad allergy to omega-3 and to avoid it at all costs because vomiting violently and all my other symptoms (including the occasional fever, all of which my parents associated with me having a weak stomach) were signs of anaphylaxis and if I wasn’t careful I could go into shock and pass away.
My mother refuses to believe I’m allergic and tells everyone, include my regular practitioner, that I fake the allergy and convinced this medical professional with 7 degrees I have a nonexistent allergy.
So I cut out most foods with omega-3 in them and I’ve been very careful since then. Went from throwing up fairly frequently to, in the past couple years since being diagnosed, only throwing up maybe once or twice. HUGE change. I’m able to gain weight now, my teeth are no longer as messed up (stomach acid decays them, and before I cut it out of my diet I was vomiting several times a month) and I feel a lot better in general.
I do miss seafood, but I can still eat a couple eggs at a time without anything but stomach pain and cramps, so I eat eggs sometimes to make sure I’m getting enough omega-3 to be healthy.
Aloe Vera, such a pain of an allergy. Do you know how many things have Aloe Vera in it? So many things! Finding out toliet paper at a restaurant has aloe infused into it, was not a fun time. Quick way to end a date.
I have a scent allergy. Nearly all chemical scents give me an instant migraine which includes nausea, inability to concentrate, and sensitivity to lights and sounds.
Working with the public, and going to a university with international students (mostly) who bath in cologne, triggers a migraine.
Every.
Single.
Day.
I’m lucky if I can get a few hours of relief in the evenings.
Please ya’ll, be aware of the amount of perfume/cologne you wear.
I have chronic eczema meaning Iâm allergic to pretty much everything. All my clothes have to be 100% cotton, rain water hurts like hell, I canât hold plastic items for much longer than a minute without my skin flaring, honestly I could sit hear for a good few hours and type a small novel of stuff Iâm allergic to.
I canât remember the last time I wore a skirt or shorts and I try and wear long sleeved tops as much as possible. For 50% of the time I put up and shut up, my hands have been covered in eczema for the past 4 odd years and now the skin is a bizarre texture from scars, cracks and overall dryness.
At least once a week they bleed and weep which is embarrassing. My arms are usually red raw and often blood stains soak through my clothes throughout the day which is bad. Those are the worst parts, but itâs pretty much everywhere. Physically I have scars all over my body from where my eczema has flared and wrecked havoc and mentally my self esteem is wrecked.
Itâs not really that uncommon of an allergy but Iâm allergic to shellfish. I got some Korean BBQ wings and didnât know they used shrimp paste in the sauce. I didnât pass away, but I near broke my toilet. Called the place to report food poisoning and mentioned Iâm allergic to shell fish so could also be cross contamination. They were like âoh darn! Yeah thereâs shrimp paste in the sauce!â. They started labeling the menu differently after that.
Had 2 patients who were allergic to latex. The first patient didn’t see it as inconvenient on daily routine but she couldn’t have intercourse with strangers because she couldn’t use latex condoms.
Â
The second patient was more complicated. She was going to get a colostomy but she was allergic to latex. Which is bad because a lot of materials used in the OR are latex (gloves, urinary probe, etc.). So, the whole OR had to be changed because of her.
Meat. Spoiler: I have it. It gives me really bad acne, and it can make my lips swell purple.
I knew a woman that was allergic to her own sweat. Every time she got hot or exercised she’d sweat and then break out in rashes.
I have a friend with an allergy to sudden changes in temperature/cold. He had to always be aware of the temperature, because something as simple from walking in the air conditioned house from outside in summer could set it off.
Allergic to your spouse. It’s a true condition, often the female is allergic to the husband’s protein. Worked for the world’s leading allergist in this area before he passed last year. His sons carry on, from Cincinnati the Bernstein’s
Been on road from Cincinnati area to Cedar Rapids Iowa. What usually happens is the couple are celibate until married, then find out the weddingâ night.
I usually tell people that Iâm allergic to dust because itâs a hell of a lot easier than describing how Iâm allergic to dust mite poo.
The unfortunate thing that a lot of people don’t understand that it’s possible to be allergic to almost anything. It’s why people are unintentionally ended every year when people/restaurants don’t heed a customer’s requests.
My wife has a Chocolate allergy, anything with too high of Cocoa % and she breaks out.
she’s also alergic to Lavender…. do you know how many bath products I can’t buy her because they put stupid Lavender in them.
I have dermographism which isnât technically an allergy but the best way to describe it is as if it is. Basically my skin will break out in hives for no reason. Hair touches face, hives. Scratch something that itches, hives. Itâs never known when itâll really react, when Iâm stressed it is more likely to happen though. I can kind of control it in the sense I can add to it. Like I can use my finger nail and âwriteâ on my skin and itâll give up so you can see the word or picture.
Two super random things:
Legit allergic to myself. I have a gene that makes my mast cells constantly produce histamine. Itâs an autoimmune thing so Iâm stuck with it. Increased stress can cause it to flair up. Hives all the dang time.
Also citric acid. That stuff is in everything from shampoo to soda. Lucky because of all the stuff Iâm on for the self allergic thing, this isnât so much of a problem. When I wasnât my eyes swelled shut after drinking a Hi-c.
Feathers. Weird, right? I found out when I was ten and I got sick with a cold. I stayed home from school and wrapped up on the couch with a down comforter and pillows. After a week I wasn’t getting better and after two weeks I was getting worse so my mom took me to the hospital. After sitting in the waiting room for three hours my coughing was just gone and I felt perfect. The doctor ordered an allergy test and told me to stop using the down pillows and blanket in the meantime. We weren’t really shocked when the results showed a feather allergy.
Wheat AND rice. Potatoes and corn are my only carbs. It’s a pain but my allergy isn’t pass away level, so i just get to feel horrible for a while after eating them anyway.
I’m allergic to penicillin. Hopefully I’ll never get a bad infection that can’t be cured with other antibiotics, cos taking penicillin will most likely send me into cardiac arrest.
Bananas.
It happened gradually after I hit 30. Started with giving me a slightly itchy mouth, then started making my chest and throat tight. Even banana flavored things and small amounts in fruit juices.
I have really bad contact dermatitis. I canât wear a lot of makeup, any lip makeup whatsoever (only Vaseline for me… and only the original), no nickels or stuff like that, sometimes I canât even cross my bare legs for too long without getting a welt that takes forever to go away… apparently my own skin is too much.
But recently I have topped it all by trying a new toilet paper! At first I had no idea what was happening so I had to go show my doctor, and now we still are having issues making this reaction go away. Sometimes my skin can hang on and get all pissed off for months. Pray for me.
Avocado. I only developed it at 23.
My favourite food used to be all you can eat sushi. Used to be.
Iâm actually allergic to potatoes.
Its easy enough at home, but gets super annoying going to restaurants… Iâm from Canada and EVERYTHING comes with a side of some form of potato. People often seem to think Iâm lying and just donât want carbs….
My mom is Irish and wonders how Iâm her daughter :(.
I have an eosophilic condition that makes me slowly become reactive to all foods. It doesnât cause anaphylaxis but my digestive system swells up in about 10-20 minutes and itâs incredibly painful. Everyone thinks I fake it or am dramatizing it, but my husband sees how difficult it is on a daily basis. I canât eat any grains, beans, nuts, treenuts, chocolate, tea, coffee, preservatives or processed foods, dairy and most fruits. I especially canât eat trace corn or wheat. Itâs scary because I have slowly lost most foods over the last eight years and just recently got diagnosed.
I have a friend that has an alphagal allergy from being bitten by a Lonestar tick. He isn’t able to eat red meat like beef or pork. Any sort of bird like chicken, turkey, etc or fish is fine.
Coffee. I found out when I was packaging coffee at the food bank at a fairly young age and I got some in my gloves and broke out into hives.
Apparently most coffee allergies are found out in similar ways.
Im allergic to Aloe Vera. Found out as a kid with heat rash, later confirmed when I tried it again on a sunburn⊠it causes my skin to blister and burn đ commonly found in shampoo, conditioner, make up and just about any product that says âhydratingâ or âcoolingâ. The worst was doing a make up course with a spa I worked at, I told them about my allergy and they completely brushed it off. Sure enough, they sprayed a mist on my face and I panicked a little because it felt warm. I asked to read the ingredients and it was second in line (aka, high content). My face immediately started to blister and radiate heat.
Iâm allergic to cold. I noticed that when Iâd walk outside when itâs below 50 my skin would break out in hives. There are other people with this allergy out there, but some are so bad they canât have cold drinks! I just have to take Allegra before I go outside.
My landmate bought new deodorant last week and found out the hard way she was allergic to it. Her armpits looked like they were starting to bleed.
A few years back she tried switching to a vap to help quit smoking. She used it for a few hours and while we were watching a movie she wiped her sleeve across her face/mouth and the skin on your lips slipped off and was on her sleeve.
Child is allergic to Ingested Nickel. The list of foods they need to avoid or minimize is numerous. They avoid the bigger triggers and hope for the best. Took us a long time figuring this out. Luckily they only get a horrible rash that hurts for a few days but itâs ugly for a few months. Lucky in that they do not stop breathing.
Allergic to water that was dispensed through a silicone tube.
Always made my throat itchy, had no idea why til I figured it out.
Thought I was just parched and clearing my throat was from hydrating.
The docs still donât know what it is.
I got an IV of solu-medrol, which humans just straight up arenât supposed to be allergic to. So they think itâs something in the carrier fluid of the steroids or even the plastic from the IV bag
immediately after they gave it to me I started feeling hot and itchy on my chest so I yelled out to anyone outside my door that I thought I was having a reaction and within like 3 seconds of calling them i starting getting disoriented and confused. Thankfully they leapt into action immediately after I called out
It felt like I was in an episode of house cause while I was getting my IV of Benadryl, I heard them outside chatting âallergic to that? How? Iâve never heard of that beforeâ
So I canât get steroids because Iâm allergic to something thatâs not steroids
It must be some really random chemical because Iâm also allergic to specific liquid fabric softener.
Newest allergy is contrast dye! Got an itchy red rash over my entire body. Iâve had contrast dye before with no issue, my body just decided to switch things up for funsies. It was almost funny cause before they administered it they asked if I had an allergy and I said no and 1 minute later my body was all red and splotchy
No food allergies, just two super rare ones. The probability of that must be wild
– thank you for the additional info on the methylprednisolone allergy!
I’m allergic to chocolate and I know all about molĂ©, I did not know that some restaurants put dark chocolate in their chili. That was fun.
My enemy seems to be meatballs made by someone else.
I’m allergic to most legumes. Green peas, faba beans, chick peas, lentils, etc. you name it. Some time ago I ate prepackaged factory meatballs. Oddly, my mouth started to itch but I didn’t connect it to the meatballs. Later it happened again and I started to wonder. And I was correct: “bean protein” and later I learned that I’m allergic to “pea fiber” too.
Also, faba beans seem to be in vogue where I live. I was in a hurry and grabbed “mashed potatoes and balls”. Only at lunch I realised the “balls” weren’t meatballs but beanballs. Co-worker at it.
Not unusual, but Iâm allergic to morphine and raspberries and nectarines. Three of the greatest things on earth.
I donât know if itâs uncommon but Iâm allergic to adhesives. I found out after I had a c section and reacted horribly to the medical tape they put over my incision. I canât wear band-aids or have bandages with sticky residue⊠or tape, or even wax (like the type youâd use for hair removal).
Itâs hilariously ironic to me because I have hemophilia.
Not me, but I worked at a museum storage facility and one of my coworkers found out she was allergic to giraffe when we were moving taxidermies.
I discovered my allergen, soy, hidden in canned tuna as a broth ingredient. It led to hives and difficulty breathing.
I am allergic to tomatoes. I did not realize how many darn things have tomatoes in it. The one that caught me off-guard was beef stock. Eating that made me throw up 6 hours later.
I may also be allergic to carrots since I am allergic to apples. That was also in my pot roast lol.
Found out I was allergic to agave when a bartender handed me my vodka drink with an agave-paper straw. immediate felt like i had come down with the flu and got insanely dizzy.
only other times that happened to me was when i had a sip of tequila (assumed I was far too drunk/lightweight to handle it) and a starbucks lemonade had it as an alternative sweetner (thought I was just getting a bug since it was winter and i was in public).
Potatoes. I actually know someone who is allergic. Can’t even be in the same room/genrral area as any potato product (Such as fries) or she has a super bad reaction.
I actually know a guy who used to be allergic to water. He’d get rashes on the inside of his mouth. And he’d have to clean himself with sponge baths and immediately dry it off. He grew out of it. He was one of four people in Ireland with it.
I met a girl who was allergic to grass, which she discovered on a camping trip…
The alpha-gal syndrome allergy to meat and dairy caused by a tick bite is pretty weird.
I had my daughter tested for environmental allergies because her seasonal allergies are so bad and we were shocked to learn that cockroaches are a common allergen and she is very allergic to them!
Allergic to the seeds of a strawberry (tannin) but able to eat strawberries if they’ve been processed or cleaned within an inch of its life. Not worth it, I stay away.
Allergic to anything from sheep; wool, oils. Break out in hives. Look like I have the measles but localized to where there been contact.
Allergic to compounds of certain over the counter and prescription meds. Its always an adventure if they want to try something new.
And most recently discovered: Allergy to petroleum products, no more Vaseline. And finally and it took a long time to narrow this one down = Styrofoam. (Most states still use this for take out and if I cut into salads, or hot foods release the oils its being ingested) Love this one because when someone asks me how I’m doing, I respond with “Fine since I took Styrofoam out of my diet” No one seems to know how to respond to that one. lmao.
I have Mast Cell Activation Syndrome so I’m allergic to a lot of things, but my weirdest food allergies are lettuce and cilantro. Unfortunately both are in a ton of things so I have to be very careful. I also had people(mostly relatives) not believe me before, sneak it into the food in tiny pieces where I can’t identify it, and had to use my epi pen because of those people. I don’t eat anything I haven’t made myself when I see those people now. I’m also very cautious when going out to eat, but most of the time they always take my allergies seriously.
My weirdest non-food allergy is I’m allergic to hot and cold. I get hives if I take a shower that is too hot and I get hives when I walk into the freezer at Costco. I can’t use a heating pad or ice because I get hives where they are applied.
Was a chef and we had a couple of people allergic to interesting things.
Pastry chef – flour
Prep chef – carrots
Me – green peppers.
Not unusual, but a funny story on how I found out I was allergic to amoxicillin. I didn’t want to get a sore throat,so my grandmother gave me some medication so it wouldn’t get worse. Mind you,I was never allergic to this medication before. I take it,and I start making a sandwich. Slowly i start noticing that im getting very itchy. My face is all blotchy while I’m trying to eat my sandwich. My grandparents ask if I want to go to the hospital. I said no up until I felt my throat closing. Hospital nurse had a good sense of humor about it. Said they were gonna inject me with more just to make sure I was allergic to it. Not your typical tuesday night,but definitely a fun one.
Pineapple, yes I’ve heard all the jokes. But yes.. pineapple.
Not sure if youâd call it ârareâ per se… but I have what 2 allergy specialists an internal medicine doctor and 3 dermatologists have called the most severe reaction to Poison ivy theyâve ever seen. I can breathe it in and get severe breathing problems, exposure to skin causes near immediate leathery burns that cause permanent scarring, my reactions last up to a month or more, etc etc. I still love the outdoors, but itâs bad.
Iâm allergic to antihistamine. Took lorat for sinus allergies about 5 years ago and broke in a rash all over my body. Second time my doctor had seen anyone allergic to antihistamine in all her time practicing.
My allergy is very run of the mill (penicillin), but once my dog licked my arm just after having his quite powdery antibiotics and I had hives where he licked me for ages.
Iâd been wondering if I was in the category of ânot allergic but thinks they areâ because itâs apparently quite common, but nope, definitely shouldnât take penicillin if thatâs what it does to my outsides!
Discovered my allergen, latex, in the handles of new kitchen utensils. My hands broke out in painful blisters.
I’m allergic to ingesting and touching tree nuts. I’m now allergic to the scent of coconut which causes labored breathing, causing and loss of voice. I’ve been told I can’t be allergic to natural things and yet I’m only allergic to natural things.
