Allergies

So, a few months ago I was in Foods class for school, and I ate something, and I started having an allergic reaction. I finally just went to see that allergist today. According to my allergist, DR. Tony Stark and the test he took, I am allergic to about 10 things. But, since those 10 things can react with other things, that puts the list up to about 50 things. He says I should carry an EpiPen around with me at all times because they could all cause severe allergic reactions. I now just found out that [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]Dad gum Tony Stark wrote me a prescription for 6 EpiPens, like he expects me to have to use them. Well, I can tell you who isn't going to see Iron Man 3 now... Thank you Dr. Tony Stark for making my life just that much more interesting.[/font]

Can you let me know how well you breathe through your nose, any blockage ? I've lived the majority of my life with hellish constant allergy attacks till I got surgery on my face.
 
Damn, I've never had allergies so I wouldn't know the feeling :/ But hopefully you never have to use that epipen in the future.

I breathe just fine through my nose. The only reason I went to the allergist was to see if I was allergic to certain foods so I would be able to avoid them.

I knew all my life that I was allergic to horses (apparently I had a couple allergies when I was younger that I don't remember), but all that ever gave me was really red and itchy eyes. This was the first time something as severe as my throat feeling like it was closing up ever occurred. To be honest, it was a little frightening...
 
Damn D;

Allergic to food must be a pain in the bum!

I know that I'm allergic to pretty much any washing powder.
Sucks to have to be dependent on only 1 type.

I fear the day that it'll be pulled out of the stores.

[/quote]I developed an allergy to peanuts. Sucks. Ass. I used to flupping love peanut butter and peanut...things. Now I can't eat them and my entire family taunts me about it.

I wish I knew what it was that I had my reaction to. We are thinking it was curry, but I might also need to avoid peppers (which sucks because I love hot foods). All the food my allergist said I was allergic to, I had very minor reactions to when he did the test. I guess I should still be cautious though... :/
