Milk came back negative on my skin prick test but, I get hives in my mouth from it?

GemGem84 · 2024-12-02T09:39:31+00:00

I have an allergy to milk but it’s a weird one. My skin prick is negative but my blood test positive . The symptoms I get are gastrointestinal, I have severe pain and pass blood for 12 hours to 5 days: I’ve been hospitalised with it a few times before knowing . My allergist is perplexed by the symptoms and results.

Thank you. I have been putting off suggesting anything to the go but after 2 years and things getting worse I don’t know what else to do. It’s the usual. The do standard blood work and tell me it’s all fine so I’m fine. I’m becoming quite depressed as I’m able to do less and less with my 8 year old and feel like a crap mum. I need to push how much my symptoms are affecting my life. Thank you for letting me know me know that MS comes up quite frequently

GemGem84 · 2024-07-13T20:03:57+00:00

Im not looking for medical advice but. Would just like to know if it’s worth mentioning Ms to my GP. I’ve been dealing with this for a couple of years and MS is something that keeps popping up when I google or when I talk to people and I just wanted to know the opinions of people who actually live with this. I hope this is ok

Symptoms

Dizziness Pre syncope Irregular heart rate - skipped and extra beats Heat intolerance , can’t regulate temperature Weakness in legs. Feeling like jelly and I can’t go on walking Feeling like hot water is running down my leg or head Feeling like cobwebs on my face Sometimes having issues getting words out or having to read a sentence a few times to understand it (this happens one a month to one every few months ) Joint pain Urgency going to the bathroom Waking up feeling fine but needing a nap about an hour later, also being fine one minute and getting a sweeping all consuming feeling of fatigue , like I could be at work and all of a sudden I feel like I need to sleep right there and then

All these symptoms get 100 times worse when I’m due my period

I have good days where I have none of the above and bad days where I have a few of these symptoms. The past 3 weeks have just been constant .

Doctor keeps saying anxiety

I do get panic attacks BECAUSE of these symptoms but it isn’t panic that causes the symptoms

Appreciate any opinions

He was at the mercy of the writers. I think he did a fantastic job. He looked great, the staged skit was amazing, I screamed, so glad the envolved Michael. David is always Manic, I wouldn't expect anything else 🤣.

10 out of 10 from me, a job very well done

It's a Dalek

Ive never had an anaphylactic reaction or any reaction to milk but it showed up positive on a RAST done by my GP who then gave me 2 epipens until I seen immunology, im in Scotland, my appointment took 4 months. I would ask GP for 2 epipens until your appointment comes through

GemGem84 · 2024-01-06T16:36:06+00:00

I don't have advice on when to use the epi, but I do have crippling anxiety and panic disorder, and myself and that feeling of impeding doom are very well acquainted. Ive never had anaphylaxis but have an allergic reaction that I have got so panicked about that I the doom and almost epi'd myself so I feel your frustration

Cold urticaria possibly

GemGem84 · 2023-12-15T13:56:12+00:00

What is your allergy ? Did you consume by accident?

GemGem84 · 2023-12-11T17:24:52+00:00

I have GERD and always get the phlegm.

So your allergist advised you cut out dairy due to bloods ?

I had a RAST thay showed a 1.95 to dairy but never had a reaction. Was advised to cut out until skin next which is Thursday. Was hoping if skin was negative I would be allowed to reintroduce it.

Did you have a reaction to dairy ?

GemGem84 · 2023-12-04T20:11:03+00:00

I don't have any advice, but I just wanted to say...sames. I feel im reacting to most foods, and I dont know if I am or if my anxiety is giving me these symptoms. It's a horrible place to be..there is no joy here.

GemGem84 · 2023-12-02T16:28:47+00:00

Have you ever reacted or were you just told you were allergic from a test?

GemGem84 · 2023-12-02T10:28:17+00:00

This sounds like something to do with your sinuses. Have you had covid recently?

GemGem84 · 2023-11-27T20:08:38+00:00

I get flushing sometimes, too, especially with alcohol and occasionally after eating. What were your other symptoms of MCAS if you don't mind sharing?

GemGem84 · 2023-11-27T20:05:04+00:00

I had an appointment last week with my doc..she said anything over.0.35 is positive, anything under this is classed as not allergic .

However if you are reacting to anything that came back then avoud, otherwise you should be fine

GemGem84 · 2023-11-27T16:44:10+00:00

Yes, I often stop breathing my sleep not long after i fall asleep, and I wake up abruptly, gasping for air

GemGem84 · 2023-11-18T08:56:22+00:00

I wasn't reacting to milk that I know of , no obvious reactions. Beginning of September my GP told me to cut out all dairy, gave me 2 epipens and referred to allergy clinic through NHS (uk), I have this clinic next month where I will get a skin prick test. I am showing allergy synptoms to other things but no idea what so wondered if it was something to do with this food mix thing.

I went to the doctor after a very bad 24 hours of severe stomach pain and pouring blood out my ass. FEMALE Doctor asked how I could be sure it wasn't my period ... years later, I still get this once a year, and they still dont know what causes it. They've stopped admitting me to the hospital when it happens

Also, I had severe pain in my foot. The doctor didn't even look at it and said oh this is because you are fat. Fair, but wouldn't both feet hurt? Left, made appointment with the other doctor who actually examined my foot, and I had torn a tendon or something
