yeah, my throat closes, i get itchy, my tongue swells, sometimes I vomit, depends on the nut really. I can eat quite a few almonds, and when my tongue kinda feels funny I'll stop. If I eat a pistachio or a walnut I need to take benadryl right away or call an ambulance, its pretty bad.

thats the exact thing that my ex girlfriend has. scary shiz.
as far as I know i'm not allergic to anything. its nice not having watery, itchy eyes and sneezing all summer
 
Alergic to nothing. So far...

EDIT: People usually don't find out till something bad happens. I saw on the news the other day about a little girl that was alergic to Ibuprofen and her parents gave her some childrens motrin and she lost her vision.

Peanuts are not nuts, they're legumes.

I know, but if say nuts everyone assumes peanuts, its a very common allergy. Many people are allergic to both peanuts and nuts too.

What about almonds, cashews, and walnuts all of which are seeds and not nuts.
 
e-mysin. I think its an antibiotic? It's some prescription medication. It gives me pink dots all over. There's so many dots that I turn entirely pink.
 
I drank a Mad Dog tonight for old times sake, and my face was very red. It usually doesn't do that when I'm drunk, so I thought it was strange. I remember puking during a hangover after two of them, it was a bitch of a hangover, and so my weakness for the Mad Dog makes me wonder if I have an allergy to one of the numerous chemicals they pump into those bottles.
 
Dust mites, dozens types of grass pollen/seeds, and just about anything in the spring time, my flute.
I took allergy shots, and I don't get watery congested nose in the winter anymore. I still get a bit of congestion/watery eyes during the spring, but my allergies have died down a lot now.
 
Cats, dogs, dust, trees, weeds, grass, and mold.
Most raw fruits and some nuts make my mouth itch and my throat gets swollen/tight.
Artificial sweeteners and MSG give me horrible headaches.
 
Bee stings. I had some problems with fresh cut grass when I was younger but that has seemed to go away.
 
Seasonal and various soaps/fragrances like Ivory and Lever 2000. Only Soap I try to use is Dove.

My mom and brother are both very allergic to bee stings. I don't think I've ever been stung, so I don't know if I am or not. My s/o went into anaphylaxis once from contact with latex and now has to carry an epi-pen for it, thus she no longer works in the medical fields....which is very unfortunate 'cause she loved being a paramedic and working in a clinic.
 
Vodka 🙁 -- but I'm taking some anti-allergy medicine tonight! 😀

I used to be allergic to shrimp and sudden changes in weather (e.g., cold to warm), but I think I've adapted. 🙂
 
I might be mildly allergic to artificial sweetener because drinking diet sodas gives me that throat tickle that's usually a precursor to a cold. I'm also lactose intolerant. Besides that, I have seasonal allergies in certain parts of the country.
