I'm allergic to mold and dust. The food i'm allergic to is onions,which sucks cuz it greatly decreases the amount of things i can eat. I'm also allergic to ragweed and goldenrod.
I think the grass thing would be hayfever, I guess. It's just a recent thing. I've never had any allergies before now. And, even more interesting, I'm not allergic to poison ivy. As in, I can rub the stuff all over me and not have a reaction. A genetic thing - pretty cool for me, especially considering all the time my siblings and I spent in the woods of Michigan growing up!
The poison plants (Ivy, Oak, Sumac) reaction increases with age and exposure. The usual path is to have no reaction for years, but then start getting breakouts in one's 30s or later. And each time you get the reaction, it will be worse, since this is a histamine reaction, not bacteriological. So it's still best to avoid, even if you have no reaction now.
I'm allergic to dust, trees, grass, benadryl, ginger, meat (except chicken, turkey or duck and only in small amounts), buckwheat, gluten sensitive... I think I got most of them... oh yeah LATEX.
