[velvett]

EGG WHITES
MILK
PEANUTS
WHEAT

My IMMUNOCAP was 818! (normal is <25)


EGG WHITES!!!!



I love eggs - I knew and suspected the others already but frigging egg whites?!

I eat them everyday

damn.

 

[silverstar1025]

Damn that really sucks!! The allergies just now got bad on ya? I am sure you have been eating eggs all your life right?

 

[EnderJE]

Can't you take something for that?

 

[hanselthecaretaker]

I'd be pissed if I couldn't eat eggs.

 

[Bikini Mod]

Sorry to hear about the eggs.... that sucks.

 

[cindylou]

wow - that sucks.

so what kind of problems were you having because of these allergies?

 

[Scotsman]

Damnit Velv that sucks. That's pretty much what I eat everyday and you're allergic to all of it.

Cheers,
Scotsman

 

[gotmilk]

Milk? I DON'T think so!

 

[Smurfy]

damn girl you gotz allergeez

 

[velvett]

No I've been having all sort of allergy issues for a while some things have been resolved but my white blood cell count is through the roof and still rising. Yes, I've been eating eggs forever, yolks and all no health problems from them.

It's a sad day here in the kitchen.

farm fresh eggs are like comfort food

 

[velvett]

Can't you take something for that?

No nothing.

 

[velvett]

Milk? I DON'T think so!

LOL ok that made me laugh a little.

yeah milk wrecks my stomach

 

[lartinos]

as a kid I tested postive for everything, but even then they didn't bother me much.
Except shellfish, big no no for me. I feel like my allergies in general have lessened since I added in alot of esssential fats and lowered the saturated fat and also lowered carbs. Not sure what exactly did it, but they def don't bother me as much.
I haven't really gotten much of hay fever like I have every other year of my life.

 

[velvett]

wow - that sucks.

so what kind of problems were you having because of these allergies?

Major gastro problems: Stomach bloat (like 4/5 months preggers kinda blaot), pain, #2 multiple times a day (sorry TMI)

Aside from that it's my headaches and migraines that are really the problems so the answers being searched for are for my head everything else is secondary and of course allergies can cause both headach and migraine (kill me now).

I don't eat peanuts because it's an instant migraine and wheat wrecks me but I'm still really stunned about the egg whites.

That's just weird. Milk is a basic substance and helps balance out the stomach's acids when you're having stomach aches.

Do you still live in the same area as you did as a kid?

It's weird I move to country (boonies) and bam allergic to everything.

The good fats make a big difference I do that too.

I take meds and shots for my environmental allergies (they're pretty bad) and since I've become a human mold/water detector, I can walk into any house find mold or water leaks.

it sucks.

No, it's the opposite it makes acid (or uclers) worse - feels real good going down though but it does make it worse.

Milk allergy is pretty common though.

Umm...that's not true at all.

"Drinking milk or eating milk products are helpful in relieving symptoms of acidity."

I could find a million different sources that would say the same thing.

Milk is really good for stomach acids.

 

[the_alcatraz]

Here are things that are good for stomach acids if you are allergic to milk:

Almonds, fresh mint juice, honey <---- I've tried them all.

 

[Lestat]

egg whites?? wow

 

[velvett]

Umm...that's not true at all.

I had an ucler this winter and the gastro doctor had a fit right there across the table from me and said under no circumstance to drink milk. I was guzzling down milk and mylanta for about three months thinking I was doing good.

For the acid he said that drinking a lot of milk will eventually lead to more secretion of more stomach acid and make you feel worse.

Fresh mint juice? Where do you get that?

I'll try them thanks!

Lactose is the culprit.

 

[redsamurai]

#2 multiple times a day (sorry TMI)

not at all............go on!!.........

 

[redsamurai]

vel, what stresses you?? There's the major culprit right there........stress leads to "everything" that goes wrong with the human body.

Milk is for babies. Humans should not drink or take any dairy.
It keeps mucus in the body hence why it affects allergies and feels illness even if one has no immediate illness.

the myth that milk is good was created by the milk industry.
Humans are the only mammal that drinks another mammals milk.

That is my service announcement for the day

Vel, peanuts are a fungus and fungus = allergies.
The eggs whites are odd.

That sucks!

The best thing to get rid of stomach acid or if one has indigestion is to take a shot of unpasturized apple cider vinegar.


let me ask you. Why do humans have more allergies than let's say monkey's or other animals?
Why do autistic kids flourish when they are taken off dairy and yeast free diets.
Why do they tell you not to drink dairy when you have an allergy?
Why because milk is not healthy!

Vel, feeling better?

too much milk will lead to a basis solution in the stomach. The body will then secrete addition acids to nutralize the base, because the stomach is usually acidic.

 

[velvett]

Stress absolutely aggravates and I know what and who to stay away from (I'm sure I'll still make mistakes about people) but this is not the result of stress, I have a lot going on the allergies are only a small part and after years of going to so many doctors, being misdiagnosed, so many meds - so many wrong meds, I think I may have a combination of doctors and pain management specialists that can put all the pieces together and give me back some kind of quality of life.

I know where your heart is though

Have you or do you plan on procreating? What is the allergy quotient of your SO?

For the record, I have no allergies.

 

[PICK3]

My scratch test revealed that I'm allergic to Mo's.

 

[velvett]

Vel, feeling better?

The past 25 hours have been really good since about 10-10:30 last night I haven't been in unbearable pain, I was able to drive by myself (YAY!!) it was awesome - I felt like I could conquer anything.

I really needed a good day.



You can't tell but inside I'm jumping up and down like a 3 year old with a new puppy.

Thanks for asking

If you send me a post office box near you, I'll send you something nice in the mail. Eggwhite free chocolates or something.

I figure I'd suggest the post office thing because asking for someone's address on the Interweb is creepy.

cmarc needs to tea bag you immediately.

You're right, because otherwise people would know how bad milk was. I mean, more soda~ less milk would fix childhood obesity.

Actually, milk consumption increased when the US gov't realized a majority of Americans were not consuming enough potassium and niacin in their regular diets. Unfortunately, that led to increased milk production by use of hormones, which is teh suck.
