#I too am allergic to dairy

it's just that sometimes you have to love a thing including the ways that it inconveniences you like i keep picking dog hair out of my clothes because he steals things from my laundry basket to lay on them while i'm gone and whenever i use my laptop i have to type with my arms in a parabola to make room for his head on my legs and yes it's kind of a far ride to my mom's house but she always remembers to have dairy-free options available just in case i stop at home and nick lives in another timezone so we have to plan our calls carefully to be sure he's available and i'm not in bed and i hate driving and looking for parking but it means i get to visit my friends and i hate doing dishes but i'll do a million if it means i get to throw a dinner party for everybody and i hate being cold but one time we stood outside in the snow for 5 hours waiting for a concert, bundled up and red-nosed
i always apologize about the ways i take up space even when they're medical like at a restaurant i usually have to take the moment to say i really am allergic, sorry, and feel like i am making everyone around me angry and i always apologize when i am too tired to be funny or when i actually really do need to take care of my human body because it feels like i'm making everything about-me and i always apologize for the ways that i become needy; how i get scared when we're high up (and no for real please get down it actually kind of stops being funny) or how i panic if i hear a loud noise i wasn't expecting or how it's been years but there are days when i'm still doing the same shit, still drowning
the trick about relaxing, i think. like the answer to why i couldn't trust the idea anyone actually likes me. was realizing that at some point i am going to be an inconvenience, which means that at some point i need to trust other people want me to take up space. and yes, some people have to take up a lot of space. but. i relish this little gratitude: making room for people and things in my life. i love picking the dog hairs out of my food - it means i get to have a dog. i love answering the phone at 3 in the morning - it means someone is on the other line, and i can help them weave through life. i love the little chores - it means i have something productive to do. so what if you take up space - it means this world gets to have you.

okay i am literally begging for more of the lactose intolerant Eddie 😂 it's so funny
The people have spoken and now you’re getting the follow up of Steve finding out
The summer was coming to a close and Eddie wasn’t sure how much longer he could get away with visiting Steve at work.
For one, his finances were suffering.
For two, he was possibly doing permanent damage to his stomach eating all this ice cream.
He’d cut out all other dairy to try to help, but that somehow made it worse.
“Your favorite customer has arrived!”
Steve looked up from where he was talking to Robin behind the counter, beaming like the sun.
“Eddie!”
Robin rolled her eyes, mumbled something about idiot boys, and walked to the back.
“What’s it gonna be today?”
“You tell me, big boy.”
Steve’s blush was unlike anything he’d ever seen.
He’d flirted with guys plenty at the bar he went to, but none of them reacted like this.
“Maybe the new one? It’s marshmallow cream with a chocolate swirl.”
“Sounds great! Two scoops please.”
Eddie regretted it almost immediately.
Four bites in, doing his best to focus on what Steve was saying when his stomach started rumbling.
He stopped eating, hoped Steve wouldn’t notice.
“You okay? I can get you a different flavor if you don’t like this one.”
“No! It’s okay. Just not as hungry as I thought.”
“Oh.”
Eddie knew he wouldn’t make it home. Not with the way his stomach was cramping.
“Uh actually, I just remembered I have to head out early. Band practice!”
“But band practice is on Tuesdays.”
“Changed it this week.”
“Okay.”
But then Eddie doubled over in pain and Steve was on him, rushing around the counter, hovering his hands over him like he could help in some way just by doing that.
“What’s wrong? Do you need 911? Are you allergic to something?”
Eddie shook his head.
“Bathroom.”
“Okay, we have an employee one we share with a few stores in the back. C’mon.”
Eddie shoved his embarrassment down before it ended up worse.
Steve kept Robin busy the entire time, and made sure no one else tried to use the bathroom while he was back there.
When he came out, Steve was squinting at him suspiciously.
“You’re lactose intolerant.”
Eddie sighed while he nodded.
“You’ve eaten ice cream every day for two months.”
“Yeah, well.”
“Because of me?”
Eddie nodded again.
“You could’ve just asked me out, ya know.”
“That would’ve been too easy.”
“If you stop trying to kill yourself by eating ice cream, I’ll take you out, how about that?”
“Really?”
“Yep.”
“Okay. Just no ice cream.”
“No shit.”
“It’s actually the opposite problem.”
“I cannot believe I like you.”
Eddie ended up finding a new routine: bringing Steve lunch during his breaks so they could still spend time together. It was way better than suffering every afternoon.

The other day I reblogged a post about waitstaff not respecting dietary requirements, and I didn't want to add to it because it's long enough already, but it got me thinking about disability and how it changes how you relate to the world.
I have a few health conditions. One of them is a potentially life-threatening food allergy (I carry an epipen and keep a spare one at home). This allergen is in a lot of foods, but it's thankfully relatively easy to avoid, particularly because I know the kinds of foods it's in, and also because it's an allergy that people generally respect.
This allergy has a minimal effect on my day-to-day life. My other health conditions have a much larger impact on my lifestyle. But my allergy has nonetheless shaped the way that I relate to food and my body. I always think about it when people suggest places to eat. I avoid foods that I've had close calls with in the past, or foods that sometimes contain the allergen. I'm wary of homemade food at potlucks and as gifts. I read the ingredients on everything, not only food but also things like toothpaste and soap, even when I know that there's basically no chance of my allergen being present. If I eat something risky then for the next twenty minutes I'm constantly checking my arms for hives and my lips for swelling.
There's something very strange about the idea that my body considers this food to be such a threat that it enacts a policy of mutually assured destruction. An assassin could kill me with something that is harmless to most other people. Every time I eat something new I'm scared that my body will decide it's a threat too.
Not everyone is as cautious as I am. But this sort of experience, and constant fear of your body turning on itself, applies to so many people. I have a friend who's severely allergic to nuts, dairy, legumes, and eggs. She rarely eats at restaurants and could never go vegetarian because she would struggle to get enough protein. Coeliacs and diabetics have to be constantly careful of what they're eating or risk permanent damage to their bodies. People with severe intolerances, or food-triggered migraines, or heart conditions impacted by caffeine, or any of the other food-related health conditions have similar experiences.
So much of life is centred around food (for good reason - I love food!), and yet so many people who don't have food-related health conditions just don't understand it, and sometimes even those who do their best don't always get it right. I check the ingredients on everything, even if a friend tells me that it's safe, because sometimes they're wrong. An honest mistake, but one that I can't afford.
I don't know where I'm going with this. I guess I just wanted to say that, if I discover that someone I know is blasé about food allergies, I don't bother talking with them about my other health conditions. If they can't even respect life-threatening food allergies then how could I possibly trust them with anything else? They haven't made the effort to understand how disabilities can completely shape the way that you experience the world. They wouldn't understand the concept of having limited spoons or executive dysfunction. They probably don't respect religious dietary requirements either, or sensory issues with food. I wouldn't trust them to understand microaggressions, or structural racism, or the complexities of gender, unless they happen to experience those themselves.
It's like the 'I don't know how to tell you that you should care about other people' meme, but instead, it's 'I don't know how to tell you that you should put yourself in someone else's shoes every once in a while'. Maybe that would make the world a better place.

Does anyone have like. Dairy free brand recommendations? I am Allergic to Milk (recently found out) Would like a good hot chocolate :,) but other things too! When i was vegan i went with chao brand sliced cheese, and i use Silk almond creamer for coffee. My store has silk almond milk and yogurt too so i can use that, and just get vegetable oil butter… but besides that, a lot of foods contain milk on their labels :(
So any tried and true dairy/milk free brands or items you guys like?

Hi! Although I might not know exactly what you're going through I am experiencing something similar. You're not alone in this. Here are some questions about your Star Wars OCs:
When given time to relax, what do your characters usually do?
Do any of your characters have dreams they had to give up on? How or why?
Who or what inspired Heruda to become a doctor?
If you met your OCs, what piece of advice would you want to give each of them? Conversely, what piece of advice would they give you?
What are your OCs' favorite foods? In a similar vein, do they have any food allergies or dislikes?
What are some small habits your OCs have that they picked up from other people in their lives? When did they pick those up? Did they notice that habit or was it pointed out to them later?
How would your OCs solve the trolley problem?
Which canon characters would your OCs like/dislike the most and why?
In a more peaceful world, what would your OCs want?
Is there anything your characters fear?
What kind of art would your characters make if they became artists?
That's all I can think of, and thank you for answering! Hopefully this gives you something to think about. I had to stop with only these questions because otherwise I would just request the entire prompt list haha
Hey-ho! First of all, thank you so much for all of these questions! I was pretty overwhelmed when they reached me - in an explicitly positive way.
I have to admit, I still haven't come up with satisfying answers for all these questions, so I'll answer in increments - a few now, in reverse order because the last few are my favorite questions, and come back when I'm done contemplating the others.
I'm focusing on Narah in this round as a form of celebration as a few days ago was the first anniversary of officially introducing her to the world.
11.) What kind of art would your characters make if they became artists?
Dance. And that's not even a would, actually. I like to imagine that any form of artistic expression and pursuit is a valued (yet not mandatory) way of meditating and connecting to the Force among the Jedi - anchoring in the moment by focusing on the act of creating/expressing. I feel dancing fits Narah. As an art form, it has this central element of transformation in making the sentiment and emotion the music transports and evokes visible, capturing the essence of a melody/lyrics/rhythm/etc. in motion. I like how the body itself is the medium, the canvas. I like that the creation itself only unfolds in the moment of practicing the art.
10.) Is there anything she fears?
Well, on a more abstract level, she's aware that she's got a lot of anger and frustration in her bones due to some experiences I don't want to spoil, and is constantly worried that they might rob the best of her, that she might lose herself by acting on the accord of self-righteousness and fallacies.
On a more concrete level, she fears passing out/losing consciousness (of what might happen to her/her body while she's out). That includes being very wary of general anesthesia and even injections because they might contain something that might knock her out.
Additionally, she's afraid in the dark and can only fall asleep with some light source around. If she wakes up and it's too dark for her to make out at least the outlines of her surroundings, chances are she stumbles into a panic attack (having company helps). These fears come from the same experiences I don't want to spoil...
12.) In a more peaceful world, what would your OCs want?
Unravel the secrets of the Force, studying as many branches of the Light Side as the years life grants her allow. I feel like she would love to dedicate her Knighthood to collecting knowledge, traveling, and exploring the unmapped expanse beyond the Outer Rim.
5.) What are her favorite foods? In a similar vein, do they have any food allergies or dislikes?
She doesn't eat meat for ideological reasons and avoids dairy products for allergic ones. Food with sticky-mushy textures (like bananas) is a sensory nightmare for her. She likes crunch, but her favorite dish is a traditional stew, a strong and spicy broth with a variation of colorful tuber fruits and herbs that have been cultivated in the gardens of the Jedi Temple ever since it was founded.
Her favorite candy are juice gums covered in ´sour sugar.
-----
(Okay, the answers turned out so short for the time it took me to phrase them because of rewriting, adding, and deleting parts again. I'm ridiculously self-conscious about posting anything now, but I want to get over myself and put something out again.)
I'm sorry that the Holidays suck(ed) for you, too. They really are the End Boss of mental and emotional well-being, and I'm just glad they're over. Thank you for your kind words and the distraction (even if it took me a little to find and word some satisfying answers; gave me a lot to contemplate - still does, in fact - and it helped).
I hope I can return the favor in the future in some way!

I am Stu. This is my 5th life - ask me about my lives if you want. My ego is massive. I have no political beliefs because I hate all politics. I hate music; I only listen to whale calls and construction site sound effects. I have listened to every song ever made. I drink exclusively iced tea, kombucha and natural creek water. I am no religious man but I have seen God and The Devil. I have 19 partners and 26 children. I drive a go-kart. I know many spells. I have never eaten meat in this life. I am legally blind because they knew that my ability to see more colours than the average human eye made me too powerful. For most of my life, I grew up in a dingy dungeon. I am a friend of fish. I used to eat coins. I am wanted by the feds for the crimes I have committed. I’m not allowed unsupervised in Walmart. My cat likes Depeche Mode - he told me. One of my magnum opi of my art career is a drawing of Frank Zappa and Captain Beefheart freakin’. I have never drawn in any of my lives. Loyal ‘til the end. I’m the biggest Oregon Space Trail of Doom fan you’ll ever know. I love dairy and am very allergic to it.

My name’s also not actually Stu. Stu is just a nickname. I just think Stu is rather funny and because I am an enigma to my own self, I just call myself Stu.

Strangers in the night - Scarlett Johansson x Fem!Reader
Tumblr media
Part 5:
"Halo?" His deep voice spoke from the other side of the line. "You think I walk around with paint brushes all over my skin, Evans? Ah, you're so dramatic," I sighed as I watched the city in the night lights from the car. "You can't deny that you do have those most times," he said with a light chuckle. "You only saw those because I was at home, I don't go out like that," I said and he laughed louder at this point. "You called me because of that?" "Oh sorry for calling then..." "I'm joking, what's up?" He asked. " I just had dinner with Scarlett actually, thought I'd tell you," I said, fidgeting with my fingers. "Really?" Oh, how surprised he was. Hehe. "Yeah, it was nice. She's great." I said with a smile that I tried to fight back so hard. "I'm glad you guys finally met." "I invited her to the New Year's thing if that's okay..." "Why wouldn't it be? It's your party anyways. But I'm happy you're making new friends." "Me too, Chris."
***
It was just two days from a whole new year. I'm excited about next year, since I have so many new projects on the way and I will start filming again soon.
But the one I'm looking forward to the most is the dinner. I'm very happy that I can spend time with my friends finally, it's been quite a while since we all just had fun together.
Chris and Scott are coming today, and they'll be here for about 3-4 days. We're gonna go shopping tomorrow and we'll set up everything on the 31st. It's gonna be fun, but I'm nervous, I've never done something like this.
***
"Scott, you sure you're not coming?" I looked at him as he was laying on the couch. "Nah, you guys go ahead, I need time to prepare myself for the amount of alcohol I will drink in the next couple of days." He said sassily and I just chuckled. "Alright, do you want anything though?" "No, thanks." "Call me if you do." And we left the house. Chris got into the driver's seat and we made our way to the grocery store.
"Are you excited? You were never really a party person," Chris asked, not taking his eyes off of the road. "It's not that kind of party though, but I am.  And I'm happy to see everyone in one place," I smiled, looking down at my hands, fidgeting with the rings on my fingers. "So you're cooking?" "Obviously, it's a dinner party. I planned the whole meal, 5 courses and it's gonna be perfect." "How many people are on the final list?" "Uhm... 10 with me, but I didn't count Julia, do you have any idea if Scarlett brings Rose or not? Just cause I need to get more things," I looked at him and he shrugged. "I'll ask when we get there."
After a 10 more minute drive we finally reached the store and quickly got a cart before going in. "I made you a list, in case I lose mine," I gave him a piece of paper. His eyes ran over the things that I scribbled down before he nodded. "I'll call Scarlett now," he said, grabbing his phone from his pocket. "Mhm."
I already stopped at the first aisle when Chris started speaking. "Hey, how are you? I heard you’re coming to Y/N's for New Year's," he said, and he leaned on the cart, while I put a bag of potatoes in there. "Yeah, we're going too. Is Rose coming? I haven't seen her in so long," he said and I just chuckled. "Oh that's great," he looked at me and nodded and I gave him a thumbs up. "Can you ask if they're allergic to something?" I asked lowly. "Are you guys allergic to anything?" He spoke into the phone. "Scarlett doesn't eat dairy," Chris said. "Thanks."
They talked for a bit more and then soon he hung up and we finished shopping. The cart was literally full. I bought so many things, food, decorations, and kid's stuff. "It's like you're getting ready to have an apocalypse or something," Chris chuckled while we were filling the trunk with the bags. "I'm cooking a lot, let me be Evans."
***
"Alright, I have everything. Do you guys need anything before I jump into this madness?" I looked at the two men sitting at the counter. "Do you need help?" Scott asked. "I may need that later, but for now... I need to get my mind into this." They laughed and I just glared at them.
"So... what about Léa? Have you guys talked since Christmas?" I asked subtly while cutting up some vegetables. "Yeah." That's all Chris said. "Aaand?" Scott dragged the a. "We're going to the trip you guys set up." "Oh thank god, I thought it was all for nothing." Scott let out a big sigh and I just had a shit eating grin on my face. "That's great. I'm happy that our plan worked Scotty," I said, turning around, holding my hand up for a high five for him which he gladly accepted. "That's that baby doll."
***
I've already had two courses done and I also wanted to leave a couple of things for tomorrow, so I was just finishing up the soup. I took a cute picture of the dish and posted it on my story just because it looked so good.
Music was playing in the background but from the living room, I could hear some sports playing on the TV, which I'm sure Scott wasn't very happy about. They always argued about the channels.
I also made something quick for dinner since I wasn't planning on giving them the party food. I finished around 7 pm with everything I wanted to do today, and I called for Chris and Scott so we could have dinner, but they refused to get up from the couch so we had dinner in the living room just watching some football, which was pretty boring.
I had my SpongeBob socks on, my favorite hoodie, and some sweatpants. Wrapped a blanket around me, letting the warmth of the plate heat up my hands. It wasn't that cold, Chris was in a short-sleeve shirt and he wasn't complaining about the heat. I've always been a person who's cold like all the time. But the fuzzy clothes just made me feel so comfortable. "I've never understood this game," I murmured as I watched all these men throw that weirdly shaped ball around. "It's not that complicated," Chris said with his mouth full of food. "Well, that was attractive," I said with an impressed look. Scott just chuckled, while Chris almost choked on his bite. "That wasn't funny," he said after swallowing the rest. "I think it was pretty good."
After I finished my dish I watched the game for a bit more then I decided to go take a shower and then go to bed since tomorrow's gonna be a crazy one. I said good night to the boys and with that, I went upstairs and got ready for bed, and in no time I fell asleep.
***
The next morning I woke up, made breakfast, and started decorating right away. I set up a bunch of candles all around the house, with lights and some silver decors.
"This is way too early for you to stand on a ladder," heard Chris' voice from the doorway. "It's never too early to do anything," I got down from the ladder, and picked up the empty box. "Want me to make breakfast?" He asked but I just smiled and walked past him. "It's in the microwave."
***
"Alright, guests will arrive around 6-7, so be ready until then. I have everything else set so we just need to get dressed. Wear something nice," I said as Scott and Chris were standing in the kitchen.
We sat up the table nicely and the food was done too. "You really outdid yourself Y/N, it looks amazing," Chris said while looking at the decorations. "Thank you. I couldn't let them down now, could I?" I sighed. "Anyways, I'm gonna go get ready. You should too." Rushed up the stairs to my room.
I chose a white lace corset, some leather pants, and a jacket. I put on some simple black heels and some jewelry before letting my hair down from the loose bun I had on. One last check in the mirror and I walked downstairs.

Let's talk about cake...
Sometimes people tell me that you can't make a cake without eggs and milk. But I can't eat either of those, and I happen to like cake. I've had some really absolutely delicious cakes without dairy and eggs! And let me tell you, I am absolutely excited when I get to have cake I can eat. You see, it's very hard to find vegan cakes, so when I get the chance to have some it's wonderful.
My friend, @seedsofwinter, can't have almonds. So when he has cake, it can't include nuts or ingredients like almond flour.
I have friends who can't have gluten though, too. And for them? That almond flour may do the spot absolutely perfectly. It's what they need so that they can have cake!
And of course, none of this is easy cake to find. There are so many cakes that one or all of us can't enjoy because of their ingredients.
The experience of getting a perfect cake, and one that you can share with your friends, too? It's genuinely really special. It's an experience you can take joy in together.
If the cake is made correctly and with care, people who do not have allergies and intolerances can enjoy it too! (It's not cake, but there's a particular popsicle brand I pick up for me that my teen—who has no allergies—absolutely adores. I get those popsicles for myself since I can't have other goodies, but part of the fun is in sharing and I'm glad my teen loves them. And more people buying those popsicles encourages the company to make more vegan items, too, which is a win!)
Sometimes people complain because they don't want to eat the gluten-free cake, even though someone at the office is allergic to gluten (no, they aren't just making it up).
The push forward continues.
Except what if this wasn't about cakes?
What if it's about representation in media.
There are lots of allo cis hetero relationships portrayed in media. It's everywhere you look. It's a bit harder to find a gay couple in media. More like needing to go to the gluten-free section of the grocery store or a specialty bakery, right? And ace and nonbinary representation? Well, guess we need to also leave out the eggs and milk, and that gets a bit more challenging yet.
Luckily for all of these, it's becoming easier to find. It's hard, and you still sometimes have to go looking for it.
What I'm asking is that those of you especially looking to eat the gluten-free cakes not insist that every cake must be made with milk and eggs (those who want to consume queer media to not insist it be allo cis homosexual). Because that's going to leave someone out. Some people are going to seek a gluten-free, nut-free, egg-free, and milk-free cake (what are we at? Queer, asexual, aromantic, trans, nonbinary, take your pick; we’re not even going to get into racial rep and disability in queer media right now). And that's okay. They should get to have nice things, too. And in the meantime, there's some great gluten-free cake (queer media) for you to enjoy!
Is this clear enough? I rather like this analogy. Because everyone deserves nice things. And it may be stereotypical for an ace person to like cake, but I do think it's rather yummy.
All my thanks to @seedsofwinter for helping build this analogy over a delightful dessert, where we both had the foods we could eat that were yummy to us.

Aqua Teen Hunger Force #83: "The Creature From the Plaque Lagoon" | April 26, 2009 - 11:45PM | S07E05
Shake is trying to smash Meatwad’s one tooth out with a golf club. After various mishaps and some on-purpose gratuitous hitting, he finally gets the dang thing out of there. They want to make a “nice buck” from the Tooth Fairy. Shake intends to ambush her, thinking it’ll lead to riches and bitches. But “we got the fry man over here” indeed, Frylock simply walks in and conks out Shake with a dart, for there is no tooth fairy, only Frylock. 
A TWIST! A shadowy figure clobbers Frylock and makes off with not just Meatwad’s tooth, but also his mom and dad’s teeth. They search for the culprit fruitlessly, only determining that he’s the Creature from the Plaque Lagoon. They find his website, which has a scary flash intro Meatwad demands they skip. Eventually they run into Gary the Dairy Fairy, who shows up to promote the calcium content of your favorite dairy products. He knows where to find the Creature, but when they do he reveals that he didn’t actually do it, and that his identity was being stolen. Uh, I’ll spare you the flowery prose: it turns out it’s the guy from Dickesode but now he’s a tooth and the episode ends with Shake eating hotwings out of a blender.
It always seemed a little odd to me that they made a sequel to DIckesode and changed dicks to teeth. It seems like a less-extreme version of the previous episode would result in diminishing returns. I guess it did, but this episode was much funnier than I remembered. Meatwad asking Shake to tell him a story over the walkie talkie! The Newhart references! Shake talking about gripping on Days of Thunder, which I am accepting as canon. I believe him, this time. There’s also some good new guys in this. Gary the Dairy Fairy is voiced by Jon Schnepp, an artist who worked on Aqua Teen and Metalocalypse. He was also the voice of C. Ling Tile on Space Ghost and one of them Wisdom Cubes. He also died in 2018. RIP to a proper legend. 
The episode sorta peters out, but that’s okay. It was a fun time hanging out with my friends (Milkshake cup, French Fries, and Meatwd).
MAIL BAG
A tidbit I just remembered about the last Xavier: there's a joke in that about a room of mental patients who think they're Mohammed and they're all blurred out. When that aired on TV, the word Mohammed got bleeped. I think I accurately guessed what the joke was before I actually saw it uncensored on DVD. Why don't you use me for your next event?
I somehow don't remember this joke even though I try very hard to commit Xavier episodes to memory, completely. Damn. It really do be like that, though. It's a shame about the whole Mohammed thing back around this time, bombing stuff for disrespecting your religion is just too funny
According to a 2017 bumper they mention that "S&P unintentionally punched up the show by censoring lines like “Jesus, save me” which became “Jesus, BLEEEP me.”" That's probably what it was. They also mention that the lead who plays Jesus was super allergic to the hay on the set.
Now this I did not know. If you are trolling me right now, just know that you are loathsome and will never see heaven. But I like that you read my blog, so that's all water under my bridge. I assumed he was saying "Jesus Save Me", but I recalled both "save" and "me" being bleeped, so idk what to think. They shouldn't bleep Bill Tush. There should be a rule that he can say whatever he wants on TV and it's uncensored always. Even slurs

because i am suffering from pollen. tf2 mercs and allergies.
Scout: peanuts. If he has peanuts he will get very itchy and his throat itches, if it's bad enough, to dangerous degrees. Spy carries an epipen for it
Soldier: Pollen. His nose gets runny and his sinuses feel like they're exploding. Also shellfish. He didn't know this until he had shrimp for the first time with the team. It wasn't fun.
Pyro: also pollen. They increase the filtering on their mask when spring starts. They aren't allergic to water but they avoid being submerged in it as if they were.
Demo: No allergies, but he does get a headache when spring starts. He just deals with it. Dust allergy but everyone is allergic to dust. Slight chickpeas allergy but he ignores it.
Heavy: pollen. He grew up in Russia where it is too cold for plant life 90% of the time so he never had that exposure. Also shellfish. Discovered this the same time Soldier did. It was a fun night.
Engie: no allergies. Smug about it.
Medic: cats and dogs. It's why he never owned any and he currently owns doves. Distributes the allergy meds like candy.
Sniper: is allergic to chickpeas but he doesn't care. Also allergic to sesame and does not care.
Spy: Dairy and peanuts. Is smart enough to not eat any cause he knows his allergies will be exploited if known.

we still need to clean the house (still doing basement maintenance) and i need to find adhd friendly ways to clean frequently enough to eliminate all my OTHER environmental allergies first bc i am allergic to cats technically but if/when i get a new cat i cant just LEAVE THEM smh
@vergess does this sound like mcas to you
brief allergy history overview for context:
allergic to dust, pollen (esp ragweed), cat and dog dander, mold, cigarette smoke apparently?? a couple of other things supposedly idr i got dx'd in 1999
was on allergy meds of various kinds from age 5 to present plus allergy shots starting every 2 weeks graduating to every month. meds i REMEMBER taking (remember i started at age 5.): zyrtec twice a day rx until it went otc (idr dosage), rhinocort (idr if rx or otc). stopped that at some point idr when or why. rx patanol twice a day. saline nose spray twice a day. allergy shots never make me react more than some itchiness.
got the cat in 8th grade. allergist was NOT happy about it. reaction was itchy eyes for like 2 weeks that eventually stopped.
went to college in early 2010s. allergist said i dont need shots anymore. no access to allergist meant i stopped using the patanol unless my eyes got SUPER itchy because at the time it was rx only. continued to take otc generic zyrtec 10mg twice a day. (i was on liquid until like high school bc i couldnt swallow pills so when i switched to pills i continued the same dosage which...is HONESTLY pediatric now that i think about it, but even at 18 it still worked? i was still very skinny though)
then 3 years into college i started getting acid reflux so bad i couldn't eat plain lettuce. got an endoscopy done. got dx'd with eosinophilic esophagitis. got put on 40mg sodium pantoprazole (insurance would not cover nexium.) once a day. (COINCIDENTALLY GAINED A LOT OF WEIGHT AFTER THIS HMM)
went back to same allergist i have been seeing since i was 5. got a skin test done. was told i was MORE reactive (especially to cat :() than i was in 1999...all from 3 years without allergy shots? at least on the skin test. started shots again. got blood tested for food allergies. results seem to fluctuate whether i ate that thing before testing (ie whether it comes up as higher than what the bloodwork calls "level 0/equivocal") two constant and consistent results are hazelnuts and carrots (which have ALWAYS given me acid reflux)
i go back to gi with these results. they tell me i might have GERD. (allergist, when told of my eosinic dx, says "ugh i hope not, you need a liquid diet to deal with that."). second endoscopy after a month on the proton pump inhibitor. acid damage is healing. they tell me its safe to stay on pantoprazole long term.
fast forward to today, 9 years later. i take 10 mg of zyrtec otc twice a day. i tried flonase, did nothing. allegra is too hard to swallow. getting monthly allergy shots. rinse my nose out with saline when i remember to. take otc patanol extra strength once a day (package says to and its easier to remember than twice a day). i skip pantoprazole until the acid reflux gets very bad because 1. makes me gain weight 2. unsure about how safe it is long term 3. i just forget sometimes. i stopped eating all food allergens EXCEPT dairy because whether whey shows up as an ige allergy seems to fluctuate and also i love cheese. i am working on it.
SYMPTOMS, though: constant post nasal drip. (no change from childhood.) nose is stuffier but managed with saline. general constant low level cold symptoms (stuffy nose, very rare slight cough) eyes water only if i forget to use eyedrops. sometimes i get itchy but no hives, no redness. acid reflux when i skip the ppi or eat carrots. i gave up nutella entirely because nut allergies can apparently get worse out of the blue very fast. ragweed season gives me watery eyes and stuffy nose almost 24/7 but no wheezing or breathing issues. ANIMAL DANDER, my biggest concern, gives me itchy watery eyes DEPENDING on how clean the environment is. (i was completely fine in a small house for 12 hours with 4 cats and 3 dogs, fine in my sister's house for 6-8 hours with a shibe, but not fine in a house with 3 cats thats never vaccuumed, and not fine in my sister's car that had no shibe in it.) (not fine is still just minor eye symptoms)
cat died in 2017 so i no longer have long term exposure but dander supposedly stays in the house right? towards the end of his life, we let him in my previously off limits room that had a knockoff hepa filter running 24/7 with no issues. he was not in my room 24/7. currently i have a purezone i think??? hepa filter running 8-6 hours a day because the blue light is required for it to function. i try to change it every 3 months but sometimes i forget.
i really want another cat...even though my allergist is of the "you shouldn't be exposing yourself to any allergens on purpose" mentality. she DOES think mcas exists. she also said its safe to take 10mg cetirizine hcl 4x a day. people tell me allergies can get worse with exposure over time but then how would allergy shots work?
things i wonder about and will ask her next appointment: i am no longer 18 and 90lbs soaking wet- is 10mg of zyrtec once a day enough? did i build a tolerance? should i go back to twice a day?
my current goals:
i will use saline more often. vaccuum and dust more. keep my air filter running 24/7. IF i get a cat, no access to my room ever. i will feed it that purina food scientifically proven to lower the amount of allergen in their dander.
my big fear is 1. i have mcas which makes any allergy exposure a risk 2. people are correct unfortunately and allergy exposure DOES make it worse and that getting a cat now will give me anaphylaxis in the future :( (but then how do allergy shots work???)
i have never experienced anaphylaxis. i have never needed an epi pen. i never needed benadryl.i still don't react to the allergy shots. reactions to pet dander are mild annoying itchy eyes that depend on how clean the area is and also don't always last for the entire time i am exposed anyway. but my bloodwork shows inflammation a lot but no doctor has ever been concerned.
is this mcas??? it kind of looks more like i got sloppy with cleaning and med taking and also possibly built up a tolerance to zyrtec/gained enough weight that 10mg/a day is not enough anymore? allegra did nothing when i switched but i was also taking it 1x a day
my PLAN was get on top of every other allergen so that cat dander is the only thing i am exposed to on a daily basis BUT if this looks more like my allergies overall are just getting worse, i don't want to risk getting a cat just to have to rehome it.
lol sorry this adhd ramble was prompted by pc advice
i am NOT asking for medical advice! i am asking 1. what to ask my doctor in a way that wont make her fire me as a patient for getting a cat (right now she just says "its different when you own one" but i had one for 11 years with no issue so???) 2. does this match your experience as somebody with mcas

Are any of you guys allergic to anything?
Larry: "I am lactose intolerant, soooo... no dairy for me!"
Lemmy: "I get really nausious around fish, and I just can't eat it. It doesn't matter what type, if it's sushi, fish-sticks, tuna, or whatever else, it makes me sick."
Pom-Pom: "I'm not allergic, but Boom-Boom tells me I can't have too much sugar, or I get SUPER hyper."
Ludwig: *Deep inhale* "Cat fur, strawberries, bees, almost every type of nut, certain types of seafood and shellfish, dust, certain types of fabrics, and flowers. I have REALLY bad pollen allergies."
Roy: *Chuckles* "Someone lost the genetic lottery when it comes to allergies."
Ludwig: "Yep. Consider yourself lucky that you don't feel like you have a cold for four months out of the year, every year."

i always remember that i am allergic to dairy too late, the same way that when a cartoon character runs off a cliff and then realizes that there is no more ground underneath them and suddenly falls staring right into the camera

foremost sorry if this ask is unnecessary, but i really relate to the post you made about being frustrated with health monitors & meal replacements being marketed towards able bodied people. i've tried almost every dairy free meal replacement shake i could find and my personal one i use when i'm too sick to eat hard food is a bottled soylent & a scrambled egg. the strawberry one tastes like fruity pebbles milk imo. i hope u find something that makes life easier for u
this is very sweet! i know @suspicious-whumping-egg added a list of options in the notes of that post. I personally used Kate farms shakes when I was in the US and use Huel in the UK, which are both gluten free, vegan, and a bunch of other —frees because I am allergic to many things. they’re also both complete meal replacements which is important for me. I wish you good soylent and tasty eggs!
