My allergies are enough to be the legal drinking age! Whoo!

Well, I went to the allergist today. Interesting results. I suspected I was allergic to a few things, but good Lord!

Follow the cut for the full list:



Here's ALL of what I'm allergic to, in a convenient list.

Trees:

Elm
Hickory
Maple
Melaleuca -- huh?
Mulberry
Pepper
Pecan
Palm
Oak
Pine

Basically an entire frickin' forest.

Molds:

Epicoccum
Penicillium
Helminthosporium
Stemphylium

Environmntals:

Cat hair/dander -- yes, I'm allergic to my cats. Luckily it's not sever enough where I can still keep my babies... I just have to wash my sheets more often.
cat pelt -- whatever that is
cockroach-- basically their droppings. Eww.
dust mites - this was a given. I have to wear a mask when I dust.

Weeds:

Nettle

So that's 21 things I'm allergic to. The one I'm most upset about is the cat one. I'm not getting rid of my cats no matter what, so I opted for weekly shots. Not too bad. Kinda bums me out a little though.

Thank goodness you can keep your cats. I'd have totally cried for you had you not been able to keep them.

I'm allergic to aspirin, can't have coffee because it makes my sinuses flare up, and I can't used scented soaps. I can't wear or be exposed to perfumes and colognes for an extended period of time either because I start to sneeze (and they also make my sinuses flare up).

I think I may be allergic to work too -__-'. I'm too delicate for labor.

Me too!!!

Man, that sucks! My mom and my aunt have a severe sensitivity to heavy scents, so we have to be careful with the scenty stuff, which kinda sucks because I like scents.

I kinda wish I was allergic to work...
