Question by Simone S: if i’m gassy does that mean i have an allergy?
I’m just coming to the end of my elimination diet and after 1 1/2 months I have just reintroduced wheat to my diet, i don’t feel sick however i am gassy. Could this possibly because my body needs to get used to wheat again or is this an allergy?

Yeah, its the wheat (and could be other dairy food). I ate wheat bread with ham and nothing on it for lunch, got bloated and farty. I stopped eating wheat breads.

Question by Ana: how do doctor measure a scale of 0-4 for peanut or allergy skin test? What does each number mean?

Best answer:

Answer by ChemoAngel
The higher the number the more danger you are in. If you are at a 0 or 1, you can quite possibly still eat them in moderation, 2 and above are a no-no.

Question by jiygfk: Does being allergic to shrimp mean that I might be allergic to other things?
I am pretty sure that I am allergic to shrimp. I have always avoided eating shrimp because I was convinced that it would taste gross, but one day I ate some of my mom’s fried rice (not knowing that it was shrimp fried rice) and my mouth and throat started feeling tingly and like it was closing up, and I got really sick to my stomach, and ended up puking up the fried rice. Keep in mind, I only had a few of the little pieces of shrimp that were in the fried rice, so had I eaten more, who knows how bad the reaction would have been. Anyways, does being allergic to shrimp mean being allergic to shellfish, or other similar foods? I know I can eat fish sticks, tilapia, salmon, and catfish without a bad reaction, but I’ve never had any other type of seafood. I have also eaten clam chowder and nothing bad happened. I’m just kind of nervous about going near seafood. What do you think? Also, do I need to carry one of those epipens? I think a doctor has to prescribe you one, but I havent gone to the doctor about allergies, should I?

An allergy test by a doctor costs 0 apiece for 2 tests. Or you can do your own detective work. Try to add a new food and see if you have the reaction. You can read more at www.webmd.com and www.medlineplus.com..
