What are you allergic to? ( minor vent included)

[Chattyaholic]

I'm allergic to Compazine. Found out when I was pregnant with DD. I had taken it for 3 days, then that last afternoon I was on the couch watching TV with DH, felt "funny", told DH and he just said "well, you're pregnant"...and attributed it to that. The "feeling" continued and I finally made him call the doctor. They said to bring me in because I was probably having a reaction to the Compazine. I couldn't control my arm muscles, my arms flopped around, and my jaw pulled to one side and my eyes kept wanting to roll upwards...it got even worse once I got to the doctor's office. Dr. gave me a shot to bring me out of it, then I felt fine. We decided to go out for supper and while eating I felt the symptoms returning! Ended up in ER to get another shot. Funny thing was, the girl on the gurney near me was getting a shot of Compazine at the same time I was getting a shot to stop my reaction to it!!!

Was tested for allergies and the final results were Alergic to EVERYTHING BUT mold and cockroaches. We did get rid of the cat and that helped tremendously. Shots are not fun.

I'm allergic to Aspirin, Motrin, Toradol, Naprosyn and Fiorinal & most of the NSAIDS. I found out by the obvious, taking them and then having my lips and tongue swell up!

Curry.
My face turns red like I have a sunburn. The skin on my face feels tight and gets itchy. It usually lasts 2-3 days. So needless to say, I now avoid curry.

I am very allergic to mold spores that grow near water. I had taken the kids to the pool one day when they were young, never had any problems before, but that day my eyes all swelled up and burned, they were running so badily I could not even drive so my DH had to get a ride there to drive us home. Since then anytime I am near water in warm weather i have to take a cold tablet. In Fla I have to take them all the time as there is so much water if the weather is really warm..

i am also very allergic to Codeine

Codeine. I took it twice (both for migraines) and both times I passed out cold. The first time they attributed it to the headache. The second time they figured out it was the medication.

It gave me a weird buzzing sensation in my head and all I could see were black dancing spots before I hit the floor.
