Hi! Thank you for replying.
Well, I had some skin prick tests for only environmental allergies done by someone who I THOUGHT was an allergist, she was just a tech, as it turns out. I came up positive for a lot of molds, pecan trees (and thus fresh pecans) and trees. Molds that grow on veggies and fruits, as well. Then I had the RAST test done by my GP. They told me they didn't know how to interpret the numbers, so they weren't sure just how severe my allergies were. They just saw that it came up as abnormal.
The reason I went for testing is because I started to feel odd after eating certain foods. Sushi (even just avocado rolls with no fish) started to make my heart race. I thought it could be a soy allergy (someone also told me that wheat allergies make you very sensitive to soy…) or it could be the high amount of salt. Benedryl wouldn't even really work, which was scary,so I cut out the sushi all together and much chinese food, although I recently had some with oyster sauce and I was fine…weird.
I also started to break out randomly. I broke out twice when I had some coconut milk ice cream… half of my face broke out…and once when I had some mayo and organic chicken with a little bit of vinegar and oregano. That's something I eat all the time, so it struck me as odd. The hives on my face actually occurred after I took benedryl because my tongue felt strange, so I took it. I was told that this was REALLY BAD by my GP, which scared me even more. So he took the test.
I'm going to a specialist today for skin prick tests (I'm guessing because they told me not to take any benedryl, etc. for 24 hours…) and I'm going to see if he can either give me another blood test or get the results from my GP so that I can have him interpret the numbers.
I'm hoping that gives me some more answers. I haven't ever had an issue with peanuts, other than a mild stomach ache with them and most nuts, and wheat I've been totally fine with. Corn…pretty okay, but milk was no surprise. I thought I was lactose intolerant because the side effects were awful, so I cut that out a while ago.
