So i think everyone knows (I know Angela knows!) that I had weird and strange allergic reactions to everything (including my IVF drugs, which should be fun to go through again for my donor cycle next month) so i am finally going to an allergist today to see what she has to say!
I mean, i put up my fake x-mas tree last week -- my arms broke out in blotchy hives/welts for the rest of the day. Who is allergic to Christmas?!

I hope you get answers! I was allergic to dust mites when I was younger so that's a possible explanation for the tree! Good luck!

Haha -- That was fun.
So I have to go see a special allergist who does "old school" allergy testing (injecting things into the skin) because the allergist i went to only does patch testing. I'm allergic to adhesives. (like bandaids and stuff), so I cant get the patch test. All she could tell me is I have severe contact dermatitis to "something or somethings". As for the Christmas tree, she said its possible I have some kind of allergy to an ingredient in plastics or plastic itself. Fun!
So now i have to wait again to see the special allergist.
