Guest guest Posted September 5, 1998 Report Share Posted September 5, 1998 Hi all, Just realized that here in Las Vegas everyone runs out of food, & goes to eat at casino buffets until they feel like grocery shopping again. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2002 Report Share Posted August 22, 2002 Milk, wheat are the most prominent allergens when it comes to food. And yes, that can influence your asthma. C-M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 22, 2002 Report Share Posted August 22, 2002 I’ve just about concluded that my last attack was brought on by something in the food I’d eaten for lunch. I’ve walked similar distances in similar (or even hotter) weather without an attack. I either inhaled an allergen that I couldn’t smell, or it was in the food.

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2002 Report Share Posted August 22, 2002 Hi Maureen, I have been learning a lot about foods and how they affect my asthma. There are many foods that can cause reactions but each person responds differently. I cant eat cantolope, honey dew melon, gluten, wheat, processed foods, white flour and sugar and I try and avoid dairy as much as possible. I am curious to talk to my doctor about this ALCAT blood test that mentioned since it may help identify other food sensitivities I may have. I found that keeping a journal of how I felt after eating different things was helpful in determining what caused a reaction so that I could learn to identify and avoid them in the future.

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2002 Report Share Posted August 22, 2002 Hi everyone, I have never been tested for food allergies, just the usual skin test for weeds, dust , cats , dogs etc. the usual stuff. But I have noticed that when I drink more than one glass of skim milk, especially at bed time, I do have a more difficult time with my breathing. Also I have noticed that when I eat watermelon same thing happens.

Guest guest Posted August 23, 2002 Report Share Posted August 23, 2002 Milk products can congest you, not a good thing to take when all stuffed up and can't breathe.. Best way to track down food allergies is to keep a food diary, although test can be done for them. C-M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 24, 2002 Report Share Posted August 24, 2002 Oh, I could, but the first time I sat in an armchair I’d probably break it. It is about 6” long and 3/8” in diameter. I got it when I was taking allergy shots, and wasn’t concerned about carrying it. I’ll have to talk to my Pulmonologist about getting a smaller one. My new boss has given me a nebulizer that his wife (now deceased) used. It is a ProNeb. I don’t know much about it and will have to speak with the Pulmonologist about it, too.

Guest guest Posted August 24, 2002 Report Share Posted August 24, 2002 Nebulizers are darn good, they do use mainly albuterol type of meds with a saline solution, but deliver the meds etter to your lungs than an inhaler. Basically it's the treatment they give you in the hospital...for me it has meant no ER visits. C-M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
