    Well, unfortunatly I'm really allergic to cats. But food wise, almonds and water melons. It's the weirdest thing, when I eat them my throat and my ears itch!! What is up with that?!

    No known allergies, although certain times of year, I wonder.

    I think I'm allergic to Penicillin. Not sure though because when I was three years old my mom and I were both sick and she discovered she was allergic to Penicillin. So we aren't sure if I was just copying mom or if I was really sick. But I've never had Penicillin since.

    I am also allergic to citrus fruits. If I have too much I develop annoying cold sore like sores in my mouth. It took a while to discover this. When I was young I LOVED to eat pineapple rings out of the can. My mom finally put two and two together and found out my sores in my mouth were from citrus. I used to also LOVE orange juice. I can have a sip of juice or a wedge of an orange. More than that and I'll regret it later.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I have the same reaction but not just to watermelon. Tomatoes, oranges, most juicy type fruits also cause to happy. I used to think that it was something to do with the juice, but I've also had bananas cause it. It doesn't stop me from eating any of them either though. Just a minor annoyance. I forget that I have it until after I've eaten and then notice myself scratching at the sides of my mouth.

    Time helps the sadness subside, but the memories remain forever.

    Dust and pollen and maybe a few other things that I'm unaware of. So far no food allergies.

    My only known allergy is codine. I was out walking the dogs today and
    someone was burning leaves.(A no no in the city) I love the smell of burning
    leaves, but now I'm so stuffed up , it's hard to breath through my nose.

    My biggest allergies are dust and mold/mildew. I have a mild allergy to cats, but I luckily have built up a tolerance to my own and they rarely bother me anymore. My chinchillas can send me into a sneezing frenzy too, that may be because of the dust baths they take though. Oh, and avocados give me horrible headaches.

    My allergies have grown and gotten worse the older I've gotten. It stinks. I am allergic to all things green outdoors but that doesn't stop me. I can live with the hives. I am allergic to apples, oranges, tomatoes, strawberries, pretty much anything that's acidic. I try to have them in very small amounts, if at all. I've also just learned I am VERY allergic to smoke, spending 5 days with my parents who both smoke like chimneys just about put me over the edge.

    i am allergic to any vaccine that is egg based, That pretty much leaves out everything, I went through 6 years in the Navy without a single shot. It also leaves out shots like for the flu.

    i'm allergic to novocain which is an old anesthetic used for dental work, Before they developed the present modern anesthetia I had to have all dental work done without any deadening.

    Big time allergic to cats (sorry PT cat people!) I sneeze and sneeze and blow up like a balloon.

    Dust is bad for me oo. Penicillin gives me a rash.

    I'm also allergic to my day job. . .

    I'm allergic to penicillin and I get hives from insect bites. I break out from latex - I'm not sure if it's an actual allergy or just a sensitivity from years of using latex gloves during direct patient care (I'm a nurse).
