I'm very allergic to iodine and sulfa (if it has sulfa at all in the name I'm allergic). The problem comes in many medicines and other products have one or the other hidden inside them. For example we were drinking Nestlé's purified water. It was purified with magnesium sulfate. We didn't realize and of course blew up like balloons. Once we discovered it of course we stopped. But this is just one example, I could list a good hundred between the two meds. It can be very irritating especially when doctors or pharmacists do not catch them in medications because they are not part of the active ingredient or worse they state that just because you are allergic to sulfa doesn't mean you will be to this since it's a sulfate or sulfide. You just have to be very careful and check everything.

Sounds terrible. Yes its a big problem that we as consumers do not always know what we consume. I think a lot of our health problems comes from the things we eat and drink.

Yep, dust again. But it is very sad about the cats. I love cats and also allergic to them. Is it a bad thing for you about the cats? Do you like or dislike cats?

Dust is a allover problem, and the sun is getting worse every year. In what part of the world do you live? Lots of sun and hot?

There are a lot of things I am allergic too. We could go on for hrs. if I started naming them. But one of the main ones that is very common for Allergies, is Benedril. It makes me break out in a Severe Rash, and itch all over.
