I have seasonal allergies and I'm allergic to sulfa drugs and sulfites. I'm also sensitive to red dye.
My youngest son (2 1/2 yrs. old) is anaphylactic to peanut and also allergic to cantaloupe, apricots, plums, cranberries, pomegranate, annatto (a seed used for yellow and orange coloring), artificial food dyes, amoxicillin, cefprozil, and Omnicef.
With him we are also completely avoiding all nuts, shellfish, chocolate, latex, and sulfa drugs because we are concerned that he could develop allergies to them, either because of how allergenic they are or because of family history.
He has outgrown allergies to carrot, cinnamon, sweet potato, squash, tomato, pumpkin, peaches, and strawberries (YAY!!!)
He and I both carry EpiPens. Oh yeah, here's another odd one for you. My son also has cholinergic hives. So every time his body temperature goes up at all (playing outside on a hot day, bath that's a little too warm, crying too hard, etc.) he will break out in hives.
My oldest son (5yrs old) has what is called Eosinophilic Gastroenteritis. This is also an allergic reaction, probably caused by a food although we can't figure out what. But with EGE, the reaction is only in the gastrointestinal tract. It causes inflammation and damage, and it leads to lots of tummy pain.

I'm allergic to several things, but most strongly allergic to Marsh Elder. Randomest allergy ever, right? Ha, that was until it turned up in a vitamin and I had to go to the hospital because the hives were so bad... Be glad you have no allergies, their not particularly a walk in the park.

Iodine. And don't think that just because you aren't allergic to anything now, you won't ever be. You may not have found your particular allergy yet or you may develop an allergy later on to something you're not allergic to now. But congrats for now!

The sun!!! LMAO, no, no, I'm really allergic to the strong perfumes most women use, something about the chemicals that they use to make the scent stronger gives me a really bad allergic reaction.
