Mine are
Bandaid adhesive
Aloe
Sunburn (if I get burned even just a little I get flu like symptoms)
Scents in lotion
Scented laundry detergent
Perfume
Flu shot and one other medication
I am succeptible possibly to be allergic to shrimp one day, it runs in my family, but for now I enjoy it when I can

What are yours?

    My son is allergic to cockroaches. This wouldn't be a big deal except that he's having respiratory issues and I am starting to fear that the nasty critters are secretly hiding in my walls. :sick:

    Not me, but my husband is allergic to poultry. Makes cooking healthy foods a little more challenging.

    I think we're distant relatives!! I share the same except peaches, kiwi, and the meds!!!
    I'm also allergic to raw carrots, eggplant, squash, latex and bananas.
    Bizzarre!

    Awhile ago, I thought I was allergic to dish soap too. My husband thought this was a convenient excuse to not wash dishes :). But it turns out it was the hot water I was reacting to. It happens when exercising too. (Cholinergic urticaria--oversensitivity to increased body heat.) Fortunately, regular exercise decreases outbreaks, so I haven't had problems with it in over a year.

    I'm also allergic to any type of melon, strawberries, bananas. Only happened after I had my first child when the nurses gave me a huge bowl of melon and my throat almost swelled shut. That was scary!

    Hair bleach! after years of being a bottle blonde I developed an allergy that sent me from the hairdressers to ER.
    I found one now that doesn't react if I don't put it on my scalp so I can still be a bit blonde!
