Allergic to kool-aid singles??? Is it my liver? Can I reverse it?!
Question: Allergic to kool-aid singles!?!?!? Is it my liver!? Can I reverse it!?
I seem to be allergic to everything!
I don't ever remember my body reacting to everything and anything under the sun like this!. I have severe allergies to peanuts and all nuts and can't even be in the same room as someone who's just had peanut butter, etc or I'll react violently, and will go into shock!.!.!.
I just bought orange kool-aid singles to flavor my water a little!.!.!.!. I use a tiny pinch of the single really!.!.!. for one full cup!.!.!.!. and still have more than half of it left in the pack after having drank 6 cups or so (past two days)!.!.!.
However all of a sudden my face is itching!
Is it normal!? Could it be something else!? It began itching today right after I had a cup!.!.!.and yesterday the same thing!.!. just my face though!.!.!.
Is this something with the liver or is it just normal to react to things like this!? Can I get rid of these allergies!? Will it get passed down to future generations!?
Thanks!!!

Answers:
Hi, not sure why you think it is your liver (do you have an underlying liver problem!?), but, there are a few things that could be going on!.
Ok, first of all, I am a paramedic, have dealt with allergies for 18 + years!.
Secondly, I too have allergies!.
Lastly, my allergies are FAR WORSE this year, including becoming allergic to tree nuts and eggs this year!.
Kool-aid singles have things in them that you may not recognize as a known allergen!. There are so many different words for the egg in foods for instance---over 20!! And, egg is not highlighted at the end of the list of ingredients to alert people that it is in items!.
Peanut allergies are related to other allergies!. This time of year, there is alot of pollen, could be related to it!. Perhaps, perhaps not!.
Your allergist---not all are created equal it turns out!.
My last one told me to eat eggs and tree nuts, and avoid other items---I swelled up like a balloon!. Turns out I was allergic to them!. They didnt call me for over a month with the results of the blood work, and even then, after telling me I was allergic to them---more than I was allergic to hornets which they gave me an epi pen for (which I have needed several shots of epi in the past for---including double shots some episodes), they told me to go and eat eggs---and eat tree nuts, I should be fine!. I was having problems breathing by then, and swallowing!. That was a VERY stupid allergist/ENT!.
I see a new one in a few months!.
I just found out that there is TREE nuts in the hot cocoa I was drinking---never would have suspected it!.
Now, not knowing what other allergies you have, it is hard to tell WHY you are having the reaction to the koolaid!. Could it be a new allergy!? could it be ORAL ALLERGY SYNDROME!? Could there be a related allergen (peanuts are legumes, and soybeans are legumes, so any soy item in the kool aid could potentially become a problem in the future)!.
could it just be a reaction to the preservative!?
I for instance can not drink or eat anything with sucralose (splenda)!. It is chlorinated, and it sets off my asthma and I swell up like a balloon!. I take an inhaler before swimming in chlorinated pools and will not swim in the chlorine is heavy or it is really humid and the chlorine is evaporating and hanging over the pool surface!.
Hope this helps, sorry I couldn't be more help!.
Good luck to you!.
Also, yes, it is normal to react like this to food allergies!.
Does it mean you will pass it down to future generations---not necessarily, although alot of docs say yes, some do say no!. We really do not know!.
If you specifically know what you are allergic to, you can try allergy shots (or, they are trying under the tongue drops) to build up immunity to it, but, it does take time and dilligence!. IT works for some people, on some allergens!.
