Guest guest Posted April 13, 2001 Report Share Posted April 13, 2001 Hi I am allergic to grass/weeds timothy etc. If I walk through a field I will break out in very serious hives. I wash if this happens and use hydrocortisone. I have to wear pants to walk in fields and cover my skin or else it gets really , really uncomfortable. 'allergists usually recommend avoidance and if it unavoidable keeping the skin covered helps big time. Now if I go a walking I wear long pants. I have the airborne allergy to this as well and have yet to find an appropriate med that did not make me irritable , sleepy or anxious. Last year I had a great year , so it varies. Hardly any trouble . kelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 14, 2001 Report Share Posted April 14, 2001 My son broke out whenever his skin came in contact with grass. When we started the gfcf diet, the intolerance to gluten made sense to me. Maybe grass has gluten.
