how many T1.5 suffer from mild to severe allergies?

[pands45]

I am just wondering how many Lada's, Mody's or T1.5 have allergies ? I have an abundant amount of allergies to medications, foods, environments, etc. My first rection was at 6 weeks old. My mother ate fresh picked berries and then held and kissed me.I had a severe reaction. Despite allergy pills and shots, I still suffer. Anyone else?

I wouldn't really call it suffering most of the time...cats though make me miserable, smoke, mold and dust...usually starts in eyes and chest versus a sneezing fit...benadryl and claritin d everyday and night

my bad...alsoangioedema which is believed to be allergen based..when I lived in the city..and hives for other contact irritants...but I'm fair skinned and believe this to be the genetic link vs diabetes..

my doc says my dark circles are allergies. so i take one 24 hour claritin a day for the dark circles.... and guess what, they arent so bad anymore. I looked very sickly before I started taking them. :D

mines mostly medical, I am allergic to an abundance of antibiotics
Penicillin and related "family" drugs
Erythromycin and related "family" drugs
Doxycycline
Singular (yeah, not an antibiotic, I know)
Sulfa Drugs...
I have the PCN and E-mycin on my braclet. I couldn't fit them all under the diabetes and before my ICE number.

I just try to not get sick. :T

Walnuts, neufatchel (sp?) cheese, crystalized pinapple... Dunno if they are true allergies but all those just make me itchy and blotchy for a day or so. and they are worth it every once in a while!

I don't have any environmental allergies, some but not all laundry detergents get me itching too ;)

Some pollens, Some molds, most animal dander.
Triggers hay fever and asthma. Very occaisionally the asthma tries to snuff me out.
Been that way since I was an infant.
Seems easier to control now. But that may be me finally getting wiser and steering clear of what ails me?

washing detergent, or any detergent really. I can only use one brand. Apart from that, a lot of dust.

Ohana...just be *very* careful about those items - if they are allergies (and it sounds like they possibly are) your reaction to them can get worse!
