Was wondering if you've heard anything about it, or if you've had any experiences?

Scheduled for CT Scan in Morning of Abdoman and Pelvis. Received insturctions today. Was told to drink two bottles of constrast in which the Imaging center gave me today. My concern is not only drinking this contrast, but then I'm suppose to have some sort of radio-active contrast injected IV that will spread throughout my body. To allow better visulization on organs, and abnormalities. I'M SCARED I WILL HAVE AN ALLERGIC REACTION THE ORAL STUFF, AND TERRIFIED PLUS SCARED, EXCTREMELY, SCARRED OF THE IV STUFF. ABOUT TO CHICKEN OUT. ACTUALLY TERRIFIED I WILL DIE FROM THIS DYE STUFF THEY INJECT. MAYBE I SHOULD CHICKEN OUT.

Every couple weeks my son will be feeling completely fine and will all of a sudden get a horrible cough. No other symptoms other then vomiting sometimes. Then he will get right up and be totally fine and doesn't act like he is feeling sick at all.

I have horrible fall allergies. And the odd thing about them is that on days when the pollen count is low, they go crazy (usually the lower the crazier). And the days when the pollen count is high, they are just fine. Today is one of the second worst allergy day I've had so far, and the pollen count is way lower than it has been. Obviously, there must be something other than the usuall pollens causing them.

I do not have pets, and am rarely around animals, and I haven't done anything recently that could be causing this now, or been around anything that I would think could cause it. I don't take any allergy medication currently, because it is very expensive and completely ineffective. The only airborn allergens I know effect me are molds and certain kinds of animal dander, though there certainly must be something else.

I would really like to get some information about what could possibly be causing this without taking an allergy test if possible, as I hear they aren't pleasant.

Every morning I wake up with a sore throat. I do not sleep with a fan on, I do have allergies but take meds for it. The problem is, I take care of my grandparents and live with them for now. Their house has cockroaches, mosquitoes inside, fleas, and mice. Theyre too stubborn to get an exterminator and call us all crazy for seeing them but its pretty obvious theyre there. The house is so nasty. Could this be causing my sore throat and why my throat is filled with mucus and I lose my voice every morning and night>

Every morning I wake up and have no voice. My throat is filled with mucus and I have to drink two cups of hot chocolate (no milk, just the powder and boiing water). I have to clear my throat continuously for 3 hours. It also happens for the last 3 hours of the day. I took Zyrtec and it did nothing for allergies. I am taking Allegra and its okay for a week, then it stops working, but this issue still happens. How can I get it to stop?

I've been getting allergy shots a little over a year now, and have noticed considerable difference. How much more improvement can I expect to see in the next 2-4 years? More than I've already seen? Let's say before, I would have asthma attacks and uncontrollably itchy eyes that would get swollen shut along with sneezing when I was around my sisters' dogs and now, I have a lot of uncontrollable sneezing. I want to know if anyone has ever been in a position where they had really bad dog or cat allergies and that it got well enough so that you were able to live with them healthily.

I have been using my lip gloss for about a year and my lips had no reaction to the lip gloss for 7 months.

About 4 months ago my lips started peeling and felt like they were chapped real bad. I kept using my lip gloss because I thought it was from the weather change.

Then last month my lips became itchy and swollen after using my lip gloss. I changed to medicated chapstick and within 3 days my lips were fine. Its been a month without lip gloss and I haven't had a reaction.

This was an allergic reaction, right?

Why did I become allergic to my lip gloss after using it forever?
