I have terrible allergies! Do you have allergy symptoms like ed eyes, an itchy rash, sneezing, a runny nose, shortness of breath, or swelling?
I struggled with them a lot more as a kid, but being outside for a long time still bothers me. How common are they?
I'm not sure how common allergies are, but common allergens include pollen and certain food.
My brother is very allergic to peanuts. That seems fairly common.
Oh no! I hope he's ok. When peanut allergy symptoms are severe, it is known as anaphylaxis.
That is what he has. He has to carry and EpiPen.
It's due to a type I hypersensitivity reaction of the immune system in susceptible individuals
Huh. Interesting. We have the same parents, but I am fine. Is there a strong genetic link?
