allergy question

ViViDogWear · Kate Spade

Since everyone and every allergy has different reactions I would just be very cautious. I think you can get real conclusions by visiting the dr and seeing an allergist who gives you a test to grade how allergic you are. But in general I would stay away from the strawberries.

Thanks Vivi! I will check with the Dr next time I go in.

Have you noticed a pattern with the hives? Like is it only when you go to a certain restaurant, grocery store, or a certain brand you buy?

It could be something that is used on or with the strawberries and maybe not the strawberries themselves. My brother had a bad reaction to strawberry jelly but not strawberries. My bf has reactions to shrimp but only at one restaurant so its probably something else not the shrimp.

Hmm, I actually never thought of that aurora! When I eat strawberries that are blended in smoothies, I don't get them. But, if I eat them plain, I usually do. I'll have to keep an eye on that.
