I am DEADLY allergic to ONIONS to include the smell.....raw onions in anything is a hit with the epi-pen and benadryl to try to keep me breathing, grilled or cooked (depending on how cooked down) the reaction ranges from an intense belly ache or profuse vomiting, dehydrated or onion powder just gives me a belly ache!
As a SICILIAN kid this SUCKS!!

I am allergic to the chicken pock shot and the mar shot 1/20 of the mar when i was young my whole body swelled like swamp thing and i was in critical condition and hospitalized for two weeks


i am allergic to strawberries & shellfish.
i've been allergic to strawberries since i was 3. i've eaten shellfish (crabs, etc.) since i was little and when i was 14 i broke out into a allergic reaction, a bad one. i dont get it.


I am allergic to
so many things it's ridiculus. Some are unknown but still itchy and people thinks I am crazy for the itches.my most dangerous one is vanilla scent and soy sauce have gone to emergency for those.have medicine allergies too.

Maybe there is some sort of bacteria you can't take in there. I live in Utah and can' t drink the faucet water have to use a pur filter. It gave me diarrhea also . May want to try a filter on faucet if you can to trap things you don't want to drink. Hope this will help you. God bless!!!

well-water gives me bowel distress that lasts 2 to three hours and dyarria after accidently drinking it yet it doesnt bother anyone else in the famly.....cant explain this on

How about being allergic to yourself, I'm allergic to my own hormones. So once a month I have a sever anaphylactic reaction. There's nothing I can avoid to stop it. Just take benadryl round the clock for three out of four weeks a month, keep my epi pen close and pray.

Sensationalized media reporting and "I washed the car and it rained, therefore washing the car makes it rain." Wouldn't it be nice if reporters were held accountable for this type of BS reporting.

I have suffered from cold uticaria for 11 years now. It's TERRIBLE! Luckily I seem to be outgrowing the allergy. Now if I can just outgrow my deadly allergy to PPD, contained in most hair dyes! Oh, and my penicillin allergy! Eek..

Cluster headaches are like "BrainFreeze" times a hundred and may last for 1 - 3 hours long and happen multiple times every day. Sleep can be 'the trigger' for an attack too! SO, whatever you do, don't fall asleep !! LOL !! :-)

with multiple allergies (chemicals in clothes, perfumes, food and food additives, pollen, mobilephones, etc.) was the NAET-therapy. I suffered and I am still suffering, but I learned how to test myself with kinesiolgy and therefore owe my health to this therapy. It is not a quickfix, allergies will accompany you for the rest of your life, if you have them, but it is a tool to have a normal life without medications, ...for me.


I know about Xeroderma Pigmentosis, a disease which causes someone to instantly get sunburned or worse when they are exposed to light

I highly agree with Charlie. These types of sensationalized headlines are there simply to draw in more hits. Yes, a few of these were actually fascinating and factual. But saying people can be allergic to sex, for example, BUT it's actually seminal fluid is just trolling for hits.
(And yes I know that I'm just contributing to the attention this is getting, but I feel that it is important to speak out against these types f headlines.)

I think I may have a sex allergy.Two weeks ago,after contacting a prostitute. I have noticed the following symptoms. green mucus type discharge, scabs, warts, and a red itchy rash. I can't use protection due to a latex allergy.I haven't had watery eyes or sneezing thank god. Is there a allergy pill I can take?

Sounds more like you came away from your"adventure" with more than release. Think two different issues like Herpes Simplex and a viral or bacterial upper respiratory infection.

think about it its a prostitute .. she/he has sex with hundreds of different people all day every day. Its not a sex allergy, you can not get a sex allergy but you can get a STD, you need to go to the doctor and get tested, and to let you know there are condoms that are latex free.
