Does Having A Peanut Allergy Mean That You Will Also Be Allergic To Tree Nuts.
A MyFoodAllergyTeam Member asked a question 💭

My daughter had an allergy test done which came up positive for eggs, milk, soy, dust mites, dander, mould, grass, wheat and her highest being peanuts. So I just want to find out if tree nuts will also affect her since it was not specifically mentioned on her allergy test results.

I learned through allergy tests that I can have tree nuts but not peanuts unless the nuts are roasted in peanut oil. However, I can have Chick-fil-A.

I’m trying to find white bread for my grandson. But they all seem to say they contain sesame or made in a facility that processes tree nuts. It’s been frustrating. Any suggestions?

Dairy Allergies
A MyFoodAllergyTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have recently been experiencing shortness of breath. I’ve had testing done and they have ruled out heart, lungs and anemia issues. I’ve eaten yogurt and other dairy products more than I have. I’m going to have blood work done to determine what food allergies I have. My guess is dairy may be one.

A MyFoodAllergyTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have food intolerances. I get very sick with wheat. It feels like I'm going to die. I my skin test showed a giant hive for wheat, but my blood work is neg. I had a positive skin test for dairy, but I can eat it with no problems. I don't understand.

A MyFoodAllergyTeam Member

My doctor and others told me not allergic bc none of my "intolerances" show up in my blood work. Won't even consider skin testing. 🤯😕

A MyFoodAllergyTeam Member asked a question 💭

I am newly diagnosed (less than three weeks) and my husband just is not getting how severely allergic I am to shellfish! He made me react twice. The first time was a learning curve!
