Do you have any allergies?

I pass out if I have more than 10 strawberries and I get a slight rash on my hands if I eat 2 lobsters in one sitting.

That's it.

Yep I have terrible allergies but I didn't learn about all of them until the past year. I had an anaphalactic reaction and almost died three weeks before our wedding so then I started visiting an allergist and learned about all the things I'm allergic to.

Nothing, it was excercise and aspirin induced. I never knew the combo could cause that reaction, of course I know now. I took Benadryl right away which possibly saved my life because the hospital was 25 minutes away. But I was sent to an allergist just to make sure.

shrimp and strawberries make me itchy.
If I get poison ivy, I don't get an itchy rash....rather my wind pipe closes. Its happened 5 times in my life and that is why I can never have an outdoor animal or live in the suburbs. I'll also NEVER go camping! I am TERRIFIED of poison ivy.

no I luckily do not have any allergies....although when I get a mosquito bite, it swells up to the size of a grapefruit!

can't eat any fish.. but that's sort of appropriate for me. I love my pet fish.... so it would sort of be like a cat owner eating..... well, you get the point

Just Codene (Sp?). If I take it I throw up for HOURS (like 6 hours straight), my heart rate drops to the point where you cant even tell I have a pulse, my body become freezing cold, and my eyes get cloudy. It happened last year after a surgery....my doctore presecribed it to me for pain. About 30 minutes after I took it my parents and DH thought I was dying (literally). My mom couldnt find my pulse, I couldnt breathe, I had heavy palpatations, ugh....it was terrible!
