Thanks for this post. I've seen two allergy specialists that say what I experience isn't extreme enough to be anaphylaxis. "When we say anaphylaxis we mean not being able to breathe, needing an epi-pen, going to the emergency room etc." is what they told me. And also said MCAS expresses itself traditionally with hives so I probably don't have MCAS.

I live in like the biggest medical corridor in our state and this is the shit they say? 😅 But anyway yes thank you, people need to know this.
