can i be allergic to something that i've been eating,using or dealing with for the past 10 years or so??...'cause yesterday, i suddenly have these 'redness' and 'itchyness' at both my wrist...about 5 minutes later...it already spread to other parts of my body such as near my under arms...above my thigh and my elbows...when i went to the pharmacy...they say maybe i'm allergic to something...she asked me what i ate before...i told her everything i ate were stuffs that i've been eating for the past few years...than my mom asked whether it's because of my cat's skin problem...she said it could be...but my cat's problem started about a couple of months ago and it's about 95% cured already...
the pharmacist gave me some allergies pills...and i took one last night...i woke up this morning...the redness and itchyness yesterday was gone but new ones appeared!!i took another pill and about half an hour...it was gone...so..i'm i allergic to something?

It is possible to develop allergies to things you havent been allergic to in the past, but yours came on quick without any buildup. Did you change soap, shampoo, or laundry detergent? What did you eat right before the breakout? Did you go anywhere you've never been before? Did something new enter your house/apartment? As far as your cats problem, have you been applying medication and could that be the source of the allergy? i would keep a record of outbreaks and any foods or things in your environment you might have been exposed to just before. With a little investigative work you shoyuld be able to find out what is causing the breakouts

Go do allergy tests. I started to get reaction in my face. Thought it was acne, but when I went for the tests, they found out I'm allergic to a whole bunch of things.

I used to apply my nasal spray daily like 5 situations an afternoon and could no longer breathe at evening, the two. i replaced into consistently taking hypersensitive reaction pills for seasonal hypersensitive reactions the place i could sneeze consistently. no longer something replaced into working in any respect. Then sooner or later i desperate to shrink out sugar from my known use and began taking a sugar supplement that still had Stevia in it blended. i don't be conscious of if it replaced into the Stevia, or the sugar shrink, or what, yet in approximately 2 months, I had stopped utilising the nasal spray thoroughly and my hypersensitive reactions have been thoroughly long previous. I even questioned what i replaced into going to do with all those pills. I went back to the sugar and did no longer use to any extent further sugar replace simply by a epidermis hypersensitive reaction led to by utilising the sugar replace that's derived from corn. I went for a solid quantity of time , like a year, in line with possibility, earlier i began out to sneeze returned at the instant. So i haven't dropped the sugar thoroughly yet am giving the Stevia a attempt returned. wish this helps me and each physique else who may well be desperate sufficient to objective it. enable me be conscious of what works, in case you may.
