Allergies

I know that feeling.

I’m allergic to animals with hair or fur :neutral_face:

I’m sorry about that^^. That would be very hard for me, becuase I love animals and am around them alot.

I have never heard of ragweed.

I hate when you get allergies like that.

I think I am allergic to pollen.

Alot of people do have that allergie.

It’s probably the most common allergie along with dust.

Yep. Mine’s dust.

I’m also allergic to pollen and dust.

I am allergic to dust too.

Isn’t everyone to a certain extent?

Yeah you are right.

Everyone can sneeze with dust, but not everyone gets a positive result in an allergic test.

Woulden’t also have to do with how much dust is around. There would be a point were anyone would start choking.

Still allergic to peanuts, but I sneeze a lot if I inhale dust.

I would hate being allergic to peanuts. I eat a lot of foods with them.

Same ^^.

I have a friend that is allergic to Gluten and can’t eat anything with nuts except for cashews.

I also know a lot of people who are intolerant of gluten. I read on wikipedia that a good portion of the US population is sensitive to gluten in some way but has no symptoms, and sometimes things like stress and diet can exacerbate the intolerance, which is why you may hear about people becoming gluten-free in their 20s and stuff. Personally, I wouldn’t be happy if I found out my body was allergic to gluten. Too many good things and so hard to eat out!

But the one thing I would probably hate to be allergic to overall are onions. My roommate (only for a month) a few years ago was allergic to onions, which is unfortunate because anytime I would make instant noodles (spring onion flavor), eat salsa (across the room with the window open!), she would have an allergic reaction. What the heck? All the good savory stuff of the world has some onions in it. At least I think so… I feel sorry for her family, because they probably NEVER cook with onions, because sauteeing the stuff would probably make her react like crazy. :confused:
