Untested, but guessing - dust mites, cat dander (and cat scratches swell up to an ungodly sight on me!) and shrimp, very very mild.
Codeine. It makes me itch.
Something at work. Sneezing and itchy eyes, constantly. I work in a library, so it could be ANYTHING - book dust, mold, somebody’s perfume, cleaners, whatever.
Sulfa (rash) and latex. Due to the latex allergy I must avoid macadamia nuts; chestnuts; avocado; banana, and various tropical fruits.
Boo.
As per my medicalert bracelet:
Penicillin, Keflex (a derivative of Penicillin), Codeine, Morphine and, plastic medical tape.
Penicillin/Keflex etc was a later in life development. Not a fun way to find out.
Really not a fun way to find out being allergic to Codeine is being prescribed liquid Tylenol 3 after having my tonsils out when I was 21, causing severe vomitting and later, anaphylaxis. Great way to tear open those incisions!!
And yes tumbledown, get a bracelet!!
According to a biopsy 3 months ago, I am allergic to the sun.
From prior experience: penicillin and something in many shampoos and /or conditioners that proclaim “Now with Aloe” on the bottle.
My sister, who has multiple allergies, is also allergic to Mr. Bubble.
IIRC, the prick tests are about $200 (they tested about 40 different things at once), the needle injection tests about the same. I think my total was about $700, but since I hit the deductable this year, I didn’t pay nearly that.
My daughter became allergic to one of the ingredients in Neosporin. She had some sort of open wound, which we treated with Neosporin and a clean bandage two or three times a day. It wasn’t healing, and in fact it was looking redder, when I remembered that my mother is allergic to Neosporin.
I claim the most unusual one. Mongoes, or more severely, the sap from the mango tree. As one who grew up in a tropical area this caused much more than a problem than it does now (as a resident of a temperate climate). My only day off school in my last year of secondary education was caused by a day picking mangoes in my neighbour’s yard.
I can now eat one mango every year or two, but more than that will cause a reaction.
Actually, you’d be hard-pressed to find latex gloves in the hospital I work at. Everything is vinyl or nitrile, since so many people have latex allergies (or latex sensitivities). I’m not sure about the amount of latex you’d encounter other than gloves, since I am confined to the lab and never visit the E.R. or anything, but I know latex sensitivity is a widespread enough problem that hospitals are trying to move away from it when they can.
I am allergic to Snuggle fabric softener (I get a rash) and to Yellow 5 food dye (in large amounts, like if I eat a lot of Kraft Dinner) I get BAD cramping). And birch trees, I loathe birch trees. Make my eyes burn and make me sneeze so much I fear the concussion that will result from the rattle of my brain inside my skull.
