Good Epinephrine Injectors... And... GO!
A MyFoodAllergyTeam Member asked a question 💭

Since Mylan has decided to sky rocket the prices of their EpiPen, I'm looking for new epinephrine injector. Anyone know of any that are just as good if not better than EpiPen that are also affordable?

If you have private insurance, Mylan is doing $0 copays for the EpiPens with a coupon. Just google "EpiPen coupon"

Hi Everyone, Can Anyone Suggest Any Recipes For Veggies With Coeliac Disease And Beans And Pulses Allergy?
A MyFoodAllergyTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi people, I have just about had enough of bland boring food just the same every night, some veg is allowed, little fruit and gluten free a must. I can't find a decent veggie sausage anywhere. Climbing the walls without them! Help?

A MyFoodAllergyTeam Member

Thanks I will try a nutritionist, coeliac disease I know about it's an auto immune condition. That doesn't bother me but having oral allergy syndrome does!

Sea Salt Allergy
A MyFoodAllergyTeam Member asked a question 💭

Does anybody get a watery, foamy mouth when you eat sea salt? I get violently sick (sweaty, stomach pain, nausea) when I consume sea salt, but doctors won’t listen to me. Can you use an epi pen? It feels like some sort of anaphylaxis.

I Am Afraid To Take My Epipen.
A MyFoodAllergyTeam Member asked a question 💭

In the Epinen, there is an additive called Sulfites, and i am allergic to the product. In my case, should i take the chance to inject if I really have to? I am very careful on what I eat, I'm very limited in my choices of food, so shouldn't i still be careful in this case also? I wish they would remove sulfites out of wine, I would sure love to have a glass lol.Thank you.

Hello, Could You Tell Me Which Is More Accurate...the Skin Prick Test Or A Blood RAST Test Please? Thank You
A MyFoodAllergyTeam Member asked a question 💭
A MyFoodAllergyTeam Member

RAST is more accurate, but expensive. No matter what the test shows, you still need to listen to your body more.
