Oral Allergy Syndrome

There are worse things in the world, but OAS very challenging for me. Is there anyone else out there who deals with it? My allergist says there are lots of us, but I feel like I'm the only one sometimes.

I cannot have fresh fruits, fresh veggies, and tree nuts. My reaction is pretty bad so I do have to totally avoid the triggers. Some things I can have once they are cooked, but who really wants a cooked apple? I want the crunch, the crisp cool bite of a fresh apple :o) I crave what I can't have every day, and when I give in it causes all kinds of trouble for me.

NEway, just wondering if any1 understands or has any advice.....
