Prayers for the Mayor

I did make them redo the skin test for apples, telling the doc and the tech "I really need to know if I can eat apple pie at Thanksgiving!

And it came up with no reaction at all, so apples are at least theoretically safe!

Allergies are, for those who don't know this, your immune system going beserk. My immune system has always been good, it's just gotten a wee bit TOO ambitious for my taste (or comfort)! Of my siblings, my asthma has always been the most bothersome, and that is also linked. I am just *special* they tell me!

I am just *special* they tell me!

Well, you are certianly very special to us, your PT family.

indeed. can you eat wheat, rice and chicken? will you be consulting a dietician after the results are in? they can help alot in making food choices.

So far rice is okay, and chicken should be ... I'm just being very cautious at this point. I think it depends what the results are whether my doc will reccomend a dietician, up to this point I've managed pretty well just avoiding what I am allergic to, but obviously my allergies have changed again. Sigh.

apple pie is good...can you eat pumpkin pie too? After all, those are the basics. The turkey & all that stuff is just extra!

I think so, may have a sliver if I am feeling very brave!

My sister recently discovered that she's terribly allergic to wheat, no fun. I hope you're feeling better soon!
