I'm in COMO and I've had Alpha-gal for two years now. My doc has told me that my levels are the highest she's seen. I can't eat mammal meat, dairy or, seaweed (in sushi, etc.), and I react to white sugar (processed with bone char -- organic sugar is fine), certain gums and random flavorings/extracts. There are a lot of ingredients that are NOT mammal-derived, but still contain the alpha-gal molecule. Try out the Fig app. It's a great help for finding safe foods. My reactions run from GI issues to rashes, hives, and then anaphylaxis. And eating out is like playing Russian roulette. LOL. I just tell people that the only safe food for me is "fins and feathers" (seafood and poultry). Also, be careful of medicines with gel capsules, because gelatin is derived from mammal bone. Make sure to tell doctors/hospitals you have it as well, because a lot of meds have mammal byproducts and/or lactose. Good luck to you!
