has anyone had non-standard allergic reactions to nuts? i'm curious what everyone's symptoms were before they figured out that they were allergic to nuts.

Yes, I do have odd reactions to nuts. If I eat tree nuts, I get very exhausted and tired, to the point that I am unable to get up and do my normal activities. I don't swell up, I don't get hives, and I don't have trouble breathing. I just get very run-down and exhausted.

I've been allergic to nuts all my life. Unfortunately my throat closes and my eyes swell shut.

My nut/food allergies immediately result in itchy lips, throat and ears. I was allergic to peanuts since childhood, but recent allergy testing revealed I've outgrown that allergy (after having kids!) Instead, I've developed "oral allergy syndrome" related to my severe birch & alder tree allergies...I'm now allergic to all tree fruit, almonds and hazelnuts (filberts). However, I do not have a reaction to these foods if they have been cooked. So, I cannot eat a raw apple, but can still eat apple pie...well, at least until I have my endoscopy to see if I'm also gluten intolerant. :rolleyes:

Oh, you can still have apple pie even if you are Celiac! There are several crust recipes on this site, but you can even buy frozen gluten-free crusts if you want.

My son has a mild oral allergy to apples & carrots. He also has "hay fever", & I'm told they're related.

My daughter is a celiac, and I've recently been tested, but results aren't in yet.

Pistachios give me blood blisters inside my mouth.

Most other nuts just give me canker sores.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.

      I had no idea there is a "Louisville" in Colorado!😉 I thought it was a typo because I always think of the Kentucky city--but good luck!
