The allergist does not want to agree to a food challenge even if I park myself at his office after ingest pork ( my favorite) as my numbers are the highest he has ever seen. He claims he has seen patients with lower numbers, ended up in intensive care and ventilator. In addition, there are people with positive alpha gal that reverses after 3 years IF they do not eat any red meat from 4 legged animals as well as not get bitten again, so my gardening days are now questionable. Aside from positive alpha gal for those red meat, I also have autoimmune disease and am positive for a lot of food and environmental issues , with positive reaction to beef, pork and lamb ( which is acc to allergist a different issue altogether) so I think I have to lay low. Just found out the other day that the greek yogurt I consumed gave me hives I looked at the fine prints , it had carrot juice , raw carrot I am allergic to! Well, that is life. I am glad I am not allergic to my babies though I am really allergic to cats !!! Early on, we have a visitor ( her husband is one of our contractor and she comes to visit with him sometimes) who wears the most intense perfume and every time she is here, I have asthmatic attacks. My husband was very careful not to offend her and asked that she not cause problem for me by using perfume when she comes ( she sells Mary Kay products ) Hah! Hah!
