Hi Dalene, welcome to the FAS community.  We have many people here with a wealth of allergy experience and knowledge.  What brings you here: do you or someone you love have food allergies?

Hi, this is stormspotter. I知 into severe weather spotting. I also have allergies to peanuts (legumes, too) , soy, sesame , and tree nuts. With peanuts, soy,  and sesame , my asthma gets in on the act. My lips swell, too.  Tree nuts make my nose run and my lips swell.  Sesame makes my lips swell and my asthma kick up, too.  I知 glad I found you guys, trying to figure out these allergies. Hummus started this whole thing off. Nearly passed out after I had it... and used my pen. Was right as rain afterward, I must be blessed. Scariest thing I ever went through, and made sure I told my doctors about it.

Stormspotter, I live in a part of the country where tornadoes are pretty rare, but several years ago our area had two microbursts in one summer; we took a direct hit from the first one. What an experience!

Hi, I'm Walrus.  I have had allergies since I was a kid but I'm not sure how severe they are anymore because I've been so good at avoidance for so long it just doesn't come up until recently as my baby starts eating more solid foods and running into allergens of mine that I struggle to cook for him.  Glad to find a resource like this.
