Food Allergies

Pre-Dx,About a year and half ago I had a food allergy test done (skin test) and they found a slight reaction to clams and crabs...I have never had crabs before so I wouldnt know, but I used to eat clam chower with no ill effects. So i avoided it, including shrimp, because i thought i had a reaction once, but i dont know if it was a gluten reaction cause they were fried. (i used to eat shrimp all the time too)

Now I just had a test done last week and I had NO reactions to ANYTHING?!!? does that make sense?? my allergist said that he feels comfortable if I ate the crab or clams, but if i did feel any reaction, not to eat it cause it could develop into something...

Has this happend to anyone else? Now im freaked to eat anything cause allergies can develop...i know im prob being too cautious, but having celiac can do that to you ;)

Was the second test of the same type as the first? If not, that could explain the difference.

Aside from that, there's the leaky gut issue. If there has been healing in your gut lining then some of those larger than normal protein molecules of an incomplete digestion stage are no longer getting into circulation.

Yes they were the same type of skin test....

      Thanks rmj when I first rang up it was we can't do it without , but I talked to a lovely lady and she sorted it all out for me, so it pays to be persistent , I would have had to decline if I hadn't been given the water option too , so yes I'm glad too 😌
    • RMJ
      I’m so glad they listened to your concerns!  I hope you get some answers from the MRI.

      Had my MRI today I didn't have to have the manitol with my allergy's , I just had a litre of water , they were great with my concerns , so let's see if anything comes of if will keep posted once I have results 👍

      Thank you ,it’s been a long road for me for having both now ,what upsets the most is that if they discovered that I also have cealiac earlier I would not have injested gluten if I was aware. Double whammy.
