so today while at work I decided to go get pumpkin soup at au bon pain because I had been craving it for awhile and havent had some since last year. After I ate it my lips became numb, itchy, and tingly (and they still are and that was about 6 hours ago that I had dinner) this also happens when I eat apples, apple juice and plums. Am I having allergic reactions? i stopped with the apples, apple juice and plums but this is kind of getting annoying that all the foods I love this is happening to and I dont wanna go see an alergeist and get like 500 (okay maybe not that many but still) needles in my back if I dont have to

    Sounds like an allergy to me. I have a ton of allergies - some reactions are worse than others. Please, be careful.

    It sounds like an allergic reaction. I'm allergic to a lot of stuff and my kids to some. The older one can't eat the skin of apples, peaches, etc. but he can have them peeled. Allergies like this tend to build up over time. I would keep benedryl on hand. (That would make the symptoms that you're having now stop). More importantly, it will buy you time if you get a severe reaction. Good Luck!
