Edit..yeah i am to cats...but not dogs0 -
gluten. I am also vegetarian.0

Peaches. Not canned, for some reason, but if I bite into a fresh peach, my face and neck gets blotchy and red and itchy, and I feel like my esophagus is closing up, and I can't stop swallowing.
Also, benzoyl peroxide. I can't use Clearisil or any other face washes with that stuff in it or I get puffy and red.
Penicillin, too. Not sure what it does to me, I haven't been prescribed penicillin since I was a little kiddo (which is when my mom found out I was allergic to it), but I'm not sure what my reaction was.
Oh yeah! And red food dye. Found that out when I'd get sick every time I ate anything red velvet (cake, cupcakes, cake rolls, but for some reason red velvet cake donuts were okay). I can have a little, but if it's a lot, I... ah, um... I get really awful intestinal issues.0 -
Weird I know but Banana's and elastaplast. xx0
-
Fresh pineapple, which I LOVE...can eat the canned stuff, but fresh cut makes my tongue break out...
Aspirin...bummer, and lots of antibiotics, so I gotta stay healthy without 'em!0 -
Bananas, Melons, Cats, Rabbits plus I have horrible seasonal allergies, both indoor and out.0
-
All Seafood
Eggs
Penicillin
Ragweed

antibiotics.
several (penicillins, sulphonamides, cephalosporins) put me into instant anaphylaxis, others (lincosamides, tetracyclines) just cause rashes, fever, swelling, and itching.
fun!0 -
Bee / Wasp stings. Well generally insect bites etc too.0
-
Opiates - causes respiratory depression
Phenagren - causes hallucinations (not the fun kind lol) :noway:
Plus seasonal allergies :frown:0 -
Food allergies, Known for me is Sunflower seeds
Medicines the list goes on Penicillin, Sulfa, Bioxin oh and the new one is Demeral
Animals: Cats, dogs (mild), guinea pigs, bunnies, horses I am sure there are more I just don't know them LOL
And last but not least I get extremely itchy from the sun. My doctors say it is an allergic reaction I don't know how to explain it but I swell up and itch so bad I could rip my skin off. After I tan for 2 weeks in a tanning bed it goes away. As they said it has something to do with my tan being a barrier. Sunblock does not help but I try to put it on anyway
edit: there are other things like dust and somethings I don't have a clue on. I am on an allergy pill everyday because of my allergies but I still deal with it pretty well.0 -

I'm allergic to something, but I don't know what it is. I've had a couple reactions after using homemade soap, and the second one was much worse than the first. My doctor says if I come in contact with it again, it will be even worse. Typical store bought liquid soap is fine, so its not usually a problem but I avoid the homemade stuff and home and take my own with me on vacations.0

Pollen
Dust
Mold
Dogs0 -
Coconut, some vanilla/cherry "flavors", amoxicillin, and Dodgers' fans.0

Crab Grass
Amoxicillin

Cat dander -- I can be in the vicinity of a cat but cannot touch one without washing my hands and face immediately or my neck will break out in a rash plus my eyes will itch and water.
Lactose (not so much an allergy as a sensitivity). So I drink a lot of almond milk.0 -
All insect bites and stings
Almost all opiates and narcotics (I can handle Fentanyl)
And it's looking like I've developed a lactose intolerance:(0 -

Used to be seafood but I still ate it! Just popped a Benadryl and then enjoyed my shrimp! But thankfully it doesn't seem to bother me anymore.0

Hyper-allergic to Aspirin. No epinephrine shot within 10 minutes or so I die. I can hold an aspirin in between my fingers and they swell up. It is really freaky knowing something benign can kill you in 10 minutes in a awful suffocating death.....0
-
The list of what I'm NOT allergic to is a much shorter one!
You and me both!!
Ditto0 -
Onions
oh ... and most prescription pain killers (hydro- and oxycodone groups) as well as ...
FREAKIN' benedryl (ironic since most people take it for ALLERGIC REACTIONS!0 -
Bees, wasps, ticks, tree pollen, grass pollen, weeds, poison ivy oak and sumac,chlorine, all nsaids, sulfa drugs, a few other antibiotics, bs (yep bullShi*), dust. I'm also allergic to heat. I used to break out in hives if I worked out, took a shower or even got into a hot car. It's called cholinergenic hives and it sucks because you not only itch, you feel like a million needles are sticking you! THANK GOD FOR ZYRTEC, since I now have hotflashes too. I'd be killing people.
Old books are probably what bothers me the most. Well besides poison ivy if I get into it. I have some scars right now from camping a few weeks ago.0 -
Sulfa. My mom always suspected I was allergic to it because she's allergic to it, and my grandmother was allergic to it. So I never took it when I was growing up. A doctor prescribed it to me as an adult, and I didn't really think about it. Got full body hives. That was fun.0
