I’m not allergic to anything, but my mom was allergic to bananas and cantaloupe. I had the worst time trying to get the dining room at her assisted living facility not to give her fruit cups that had those two fruits mixed in.
I think I might be semi-allergic too.Allergic to liars here
I didn't know you were allergic to cats!Also cats and dogs but that's what medicine is for.
Were they made of wool? That's the only material that makes me itchy.I had an allergic reaction to a pair of tights.
Am I one of those liars? I have been told that some of my post are bizarre but I don't lie. I don't think any one here as a liar.Allergic to liars here
I'm sure he meant in real life "here", not here at TCS. Your posts are not bizarre, I enjoy them!Am I one of those liars? I have been told that some of my post are bizarre but I don't lie. I don't think any one here as a liar.
Yeah, my skin is sensitive to scented things. It's hard, because I really love vanilla scented body washes, so I use them anyway.allergies to perfumes
I think there's a chemical in processed flour products that a lot of people react to. Or maybe it's the high-fructose corn syrup, which has a a rather violent effect on my mom's digestive system, and that's probably not rare either.foods like apple fritters and hot dog buns (don't ask. IDK.)
Sounds like you had a reaction to the polyester/nylon in the tights. I can't wear those either or all I do is itch and scratch. Don't like anything tight against my skin-makes me itch like crazy. I have trouble with acrylic in socks. It makes me itch and my foot slides around-I have to make sure that the nylon/acrylic content of socks is super low otherwise my feet turn red from itching. Growing up all I wore were cotton socks-now it's impossible to find decent cotton socks so now I wear merino wool.It hasn't been officially diagnosed as an allergy, but I always say deet when forms ask for allergies, because it really bothered me when my mom sprayed it on me once as a child, and I can't even be around it when other people put on bug spray with it because I don't like how it makes me feel.
What I don't put on forms is that a few years ago I had an allergic reaction to a pair of tights. idek, like I was walking a Thanksgiving 5k and I put on a new pair of tights, then leggings, then sweats, because it was pretty cold, and I kept getting itchier and itchier as the walk went on and when I got home I had hives all over my thighs (fortunately, there was benedryl cream easily available).
I did get a rash the last time I was on amoxicillin this past February, which I don't believe has ever happened before so idk. I did tell my doctor, even though it didn't itch or anything.
That's my weird body, I guess.
Thanks, maggiedemi. I though he was talking about people in the forum. I'm just paranoid. I enjoy your post, too.I'm sure he meant in real life "here", not here at TCS. Your posts are not bizarre, I enjoy them!
Not at all! By "here" I meant my wife and I, here at our house, in general over all. We've had some liars here in the house and that didn't turn out well at all.Am I one of those liars? I have been told that some of my post are bizarre but I don't lie. I don't think any one here as a liar.
Like I said I am paranoid and thought you were talking about me because of some of my bizarre post. I don't believe there are any liars in this forum. I am sorry you had them at your house.Not at all! By "here" I meant my wife and I, here at our house, in general over all. We've had some liars here in the house and that didn't turn out well at all.
I don't think your posts are bizarre and I certainly don't think you or anyone else here on TCS is a liar.
I go into anaphylactic shock with acetaminophen/anything containing it, kashmir64 and it's scary! I had a GP prescribe Vicodin for me for pain once. Took one, had the reaction, called him up and yelled at him. Even my *at that time* paperback pharmacopia listed acetaminophen as being an ingredient of Vicodin! He insisted it didn't have that. I told him to look it up. *Idiot!!! Could have killed me!* I tell doctors first thing to flag my file for this. That SHOULD make them stop before they "try to give" you something you're allergic to. But still, we have to be our own health care because these allopathic (symptom-based, western protocols) practitioners spend 15 minutes on you if you're lucky, don't know you, probably see you as a $$$ rather than a person, and are not at all to be trusted IMHO.My main ones are steroids (in any form) and bananas.
My medical file says the reactions for steroids is 'anaphylaxis' and yet the doctor keeps trying to give me a steroid shot for my knee and shoulder. Go figure.
