      I'm NKA (No Known Allergies in medical parlance).  They haven't yet found anything that can kill me.

    I'm allergic to lots of things (cats, trees, flowers, certain foods, life), but my main allergen is mold/mildew.

    Good grief!  I hope you are eliminating as many chemicals from your life as possible.

    Medication with codeine and general anesthesia are big problems.

    I was suddenly allergic to shrimp in my 30s.  I mean, if there was one shrimp in a pot of gumbo it caused me trouble.  About 20 years later I decided to take a chance and ordered some and had no trouble.  A doctor friend had told me that that allergy often disappears just like it surfaces.  I've been enjoying shrimp ever since.  It would have been horrible to live on the Gulf and not be able to eat it.

  • It does resemble an 11.  I'm not sure but I'm thinking you may be right.

      The spelling is in the Dutch language, Professor.

    Cats, mold and carpet glue. Exposure to carpet glue or new carpet will send me to the emergency room and requires breathing treatments.

    I have no idea why.
