Allergies

I have a severe allergy to Cinnamon (mainly the oil)
I have anaphlactic reations to it. My throat swells some and it hurts, larger amounts can close my throat .

I was wondering if there are others out there with an allergy to Cinnamon and what reactions do you or that person have?

Is there a list of gluten-free RX drugs I can give to my pharmacist to help other people like me? What about mail-order RX? How do I prevent getting drugs that will make me ill from the gluten?

With the pollution in water, air and soil, these factors are producing new allergies or diseases in the people?
Do you know any example?

Typically at night, both of my legs, buttocks, back, arms, and shoulders itch like crazy. I scratch them, and then they swell up, and look like welts, or a big patch of swolleness... My stomach and chest never itch. This all started about 2 months ago. I constantly wash my sheets, clothes, etc. I am only 21 years old, and others have suggessted liver disease and that scares me to death. Could it just be allergies? Hives? I find this strange, but I was in the bahamas this past week, and I did not get any itching anywhere... However, the minute I got off the plane back in New York, I started itching again. Antihistamines help me, but I think that there should be a better method to cure this. Please help b/c this itching is really driving me crazy, I lose sleep over it, I just want it to go away.

Every day, especially at night, my body breaks out itching. Both legs, buttocks, back, feet, and shoulders.. I think it may be hives, but I am not sure. After scratching, I get swollen lines of the path in which I scratched, and then it swells like crazy. Goes away in about an hour... I have tried antihistamines, but they only give me temp. relief. This has been going on for about two months now. I constantly wash my sheets and covers, my clothes, and anything that can be washed. I don't know what this is, but it is driving me crazy.

I moved to Spokane, WA about a month ago. Ever since then the front of my neck has been itching. Nothing else, just my neck. Anybody from the area know of any allergens that I wouldn't have been exposed to in Oregon?

I have kind of bad allergies, and the doctor has seen my throat before but I don't know if he is any good because he usually doesn't look at my throat when I see him for allergies. I have had the bumps for years. They are not small, and they are red...I don't know if it's my allergies, if its normal, or if its time for a new doc. Thanks. I am not looking for a diagnosis, just is this normal?

I do not have a rash but the itching has gone on for a week now. I take 2 Benedryl every 6 hrs. but it doesn't help much. I have avoided melon and berries for a week now, but there is not a spot on my body that doesn't itch at sometime. It keeps me awake!

I live in Arizona and have severe allergies (just had them for the first time this season). My allergies were really bad in May and June, fine in July, but today for some reason they really flared up. All day today, my nose has been either totally stuffed up or running like water, I've been sneezing a lot, and coughing a bit. Will the Zyrtec (which I have left over from a prescription) work if I take it today, or should I take something else?

My family doctor recommended I go see an allergist and I am going to go in a few weeks. In the meantime, he gave me a shot of Demerol and it is working very well. Can anyone tell me exactly what type of shots are given for allergies and what the side affects are? I'm allergic to everything, from animal dander to pollen to strawberries! My doctor doesn't usually recommend shots but he said I am an exception. I've never been to an allergist and I'm not sure what to expect.

Just recently I have acquired a MOSQUITO ALLERGY. Before, like most people, I would just develop a littl red itchy bump. Now my where the bite is, my skin swells up twice the size of a half dollar; also it can puff up/out to as big as a golfball. I am 20 years old, and this has happened to me atleast 4 times in the last month (July/August). Yet this has NEVER happened before. I went to the E.R. and they said I was just allergic and prescribed anti-biotics. Just recently I went camping in Delaware, and I acquired 7, yes SEVEN, of the same sized reactions all over my body. Anti-histamine does not work, DEET does not work, OFF! bugspray does not work, and i LOVE THE OUTDOORS so i will not stay inside. HELP? ALLERGIST? What should I do to prevent, treat my problem?

My daughter and I never had allergies in the past, no matter what we ate or did. Now, times have become tougher, we both work in physically demanding jobs, have insufficient sleep, and a monotonous diet. .... AND .... we suffer from any allergy you could possibly think of (verified by tests). Any connection, or coincidence?

I must take Prilosec for various GI problems (including GERD) for the rest of my life. When I had an allergic reaction to penicillin in the Spring, I was given Pepcid AC to combat part of the reaction.
I was thinking of alternating days with these two drugs to give me the proton pump inhibitor action, but also the H2 blocker action since I have such bad allergies anyway.
Anyone else done this or those with a medical background think this is a good idea?
