So today, my allergies finally hit me. My eyes itch and are watering like crazy. However, none of my friends are experiencing it as bad as I am. Also, some of my friends don’t feel affected at all. Why do allergies affect some people mroe than others, and some not at all?

Why can’t people with food allergies suffer minor aches and pains? Instead, they suffer serious and severe pain to a point that one needs to go to emergency room. It can be so deadly that possible death can occur. Why is that?

My body seems like having an allergy attack is a daily thing now. I’ve gotten so used to having hives daily it’s like if I forget to take my allergy meds then I will break out in the middle of the night. Last summer I would break out in hives everyday around 4pm not matter where I was or what I was doing. If it’s now hives my face, around my eyes, my lips, tongue, or throat will swell or fequent headaches. How do people deal with the same problems daily? HELP ME!! This doesn’t run in my family. I have it and now I’ve past it on to my daughter who hasn’t had them as severe as I yet. Can anyone dealing with the same problem give me any answers. The only stress that I have in my life is these allergies. I eat healthy and I used to exercise on my eliptical daily but now that I’m on allergy meds daily I just don’t have the energy anymore.

I have fits with my head, face, and/or body breaking out when my allergies mess with me. Normally I am a really good looking guy, but when this happens it makes me insecure as shit.

I can’t believe it, but it would appear that I am developing an allergy to soy. I didn’t seem to have any problems before when I was just a regular old vegetarian, but since I’ve cut out dairy and eggs I have been eating a lot more soy (soy cream, soy milk, soy cheeses, on top of the usual soy meat substitutes and tofu). It’s been about two months since I’ve increased my soy intake. About a week or so ago I started getting mild hives. They seem worst at night (like an hour or so after dinner where I usually get the most soy) and tend to go away for the most part during the day, but I had tofu for lunch and didn’t have a very severe reaction, so I don’t know what’s going on. I am going away for the night tomorrow and plan on eating a lot of soy so that I can rule out an allergy to my cat. I typically do not have allergies, although I did get hives a lot when I was a kid. Does it sound normal to get an allergy late in life like this? Are hives a common symptom of soy allergies? Thanks!
P.S. I’m asking here because I know other vegetarians will have more experience with soy related questions than most others and I recall a few people mentioning soy allergies here before.
Oh my gosh, such good information here. I just can’t thank you all enough. I’m going to leave the question up for a while to see if I get anymore responses. You guys rock!

How come When People have allergies and their nose is itchy why do they pick their noses? They don’t even use a kleenex which my mom does and I get irritated when she does that in public.
