I had problems with it a few years ago. I had terrible hives from my ankles up, by far the worst allergic reaction I had ever had. I was diagnosed at an allergy specialist, and stayed away from red meat with minimal problems. We are red meat eaters, butchering our own hogs and deer, it was quite a change. After about a year I started risking adding a little bit back into my diet, things like bacon bits on salad. I didn't have any ill effects so i experimented further, and now I can eat what I want again. I had a friend who had the same thing and his lasted for about five years, he now eats what he wants. It's not a life sentence in some cases, but it was easier for me to assume it would be, at the time. I would recommend getting used to fish and poultry then testing it a little as time passes. I wouldn't want to have to deal with it again, and hope you don't have to deal with it forever.

I sure hope the west coast continues to stay relatively bug free. A few mosquitos, and no-seeums are about all I ever want to deal with. I don't know how you guys can put up with that stuff, I think I'd have to hibernate for the summer.

I have a friend who has it. He can tolerate a little red meat, but not much. Should call it something with Democrat in the name, because it screws your life up for about the same amount of time.
