I can't imagine being allergic to chocolate! As it is, with the nut allergy, I can't eat most chocolate things... but there are some I can have, so I still get my chocolate fix!

Smoke, humidity, steam, etc bugs my asthma, but I'm not sure if it's an actual "allergy" for me. Dust defintely is though! Do you cough up mucous and such, or do you just cough? That must not be very fun to be coughing and vomiting all the time!

I'm allergic to ragweed, pigweed, cedar, mesquite (that was a tough one when I lived in West Texas) and a few other things that have not been identified. My allergies aren't all that bad and I never has gotten all the patch tests done - just a quick one years ago when I moved to Texas. I had never had an allergy problem til I moved to this state. Now, I get allergy attacks 2 or 3 times a year - but not really bad ones.

That doesn't sound toooo bad. When I find my papers, I'll post the specific pollens that we know about, but all of the ones tested came out so we kind of figure... ALL pollens.

I am also allergic to nuts(but not peanuts). How bad is your allergy? Mine puts me in anaphylactic shock and I have to do the whole call 911-go to the hospital-get tons of epinephrine pumped in to me deal. It's really lousy, and makes me really paranoid to eat out sometimes, when I can never be certain what all might in some foods. I have seasonal allergies, they tend to vary year to year though. This year I got off pretty easy. I'm also allergic to my pet rats, to the extent I began having asthmatic reactions to them. Fortunately, I managed to get on the right medication and it keeps everything under control. Now all that really happens is I get a little itchy after I handle them, but that's easy enough to deal with. :)

Mine are pretty bad. My throat swells up and it takes me like 2 minutes to swallow water... up until recently, Benadryl handled it ... mostly. I've never used the epinephrine... I went to the hospital once after my throat had been swollen for 4 days solid... they said I was probably starting to have some asthmatic reactions because I was probably allergic to more than we had known before, and gave me a week's worth of prednizone and lots of puffers. Now, I have asthma and the meds.... help... periodically I just feel like throwing things, but then I get days where everything is better. Fortunately, I'm not allergic to my pets :)

Well I bet that was a relief! I've never had delusions from an allergy, but I've definitely had itching and trouble breathing. I know how much getting a diagnosis can really help I'm allergic to sulfa meds as well
