Guest guest Posted January 8, 2005 Report Share Posted January 8, 2005 I have a question regarding allergic reactions... During my pregnancy I had to go to the ER one evening (11weeks prego) because I suddenly broke out with intense itching and serve hives all over my body. It was something I ate for lunch that day (but I cant remember what!) Anyhow, some benedryl in an IV and I was good to go. 5 months later I ate some cajun spices at a restaurant and low and behold it happened again. This time I took a benedryl pill and had my husband massage my back. The massage itself helped a great deal. Just a few weeks ago, we went out to dinner and I had some hot spicy wings (thinking it was just a pregnancy thing). That evening, it happened again. My entire life I have been able to eat cayenne pepper and hot spicy items but just in the last 2 years, I have developed a reaction to it and can't seem to eat them without getting hives. Any suggestions as to why I suddenly may be allergic? I thank you Jenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
