Do you or does someone you know have allergies to meat.?

Question

I am allergic to beef, pork, lamb, etc. Do you or anybody you know have this kind of allergies and if so what do you do about it. Is there a medicine that you can take for this.

Answer 1

Yes, my son is allergic to all mainstream meat, poultry, pork, and lamb.

If the allergy is IgE-mediated, then the only thing you can do is avoid eating the allergen.

As an alternative to beef, you could try buffalo. It actually tastes a lot like beef.

Answer 2

I'm allergic to seafood,fish,tuna,shrimp & I can't even touched any form of a minced meat form of fish such as a fishstick. I get itchy and my face and lips swell. Except for the minced meat type i have breathing problems too. Sorry theres no meds. However some allergy specialist are willing to do this method they give you a consecutive amount of shots for a certain amount of weeks or months of the actual allergen to build your body's immunity to the allergen and at the end your supposed to not be allergic anymore or close enough where the allergen is bearable to you. But it can be dangerous depending on how allergic you are.

Answer 3

I am allergic to chicken and turkey. I don't know of any medicine for it. I have to read labels and avoid it. It is amazing how many hot dogs and lunch meats contain poultry. I can eat other types of meat.

Answer 4

I'm allergic to pork as well as fish and shellfish. There aren't any medications to take, you just have to avoid it and if you accidentally eat some, take a Benadryl as soon as you can.

Answer 5

I work with a lady who is allergic to processed meat, i.e. bologna, deli meat, hotdogs, etc. She just doesn't eat these types of meat. For her situation, there is no medicine.
