Seasonal allergies are the only thing that afflict me right now. Dust and dander will sometimes send me off too.

@MrsTiz: how do you wear jeans?

Latex. Kind of inconvenient but not terrible.

Most scented skin care products!

Wheat, Latex, some pollens, some wood (can't be near it for campfires)... and some spice in certain Mediterranean food that I have yet to identify.

penicillin. Like bad! I always triple check with doctors when given antibiotics.

The list is so long! Peanuts, tree nuts, coconut, palm, chickpeas, melons, cucumber, strawberry (these are actual allergies, not OAS), mold, dust, dust mites, all kinds of pollen (written down somewhere but I no longer care), aaaaand latex.

Bees.

Oh, and I have celiac. Technically not an allergy, but I'll list it anyway.

I'm also allergic to nickel! It's gotten a lot better the older I've gotten, now it's just if I wear cheap necklaces and stuff like that, particularly in the summer when I'm sweating, but when I was a baby I would get tiny snap-shaped rashes on my body from onesies and it wasn't until I was in my early 20s that I stopped getting a rash all over my belly from jeans buttons. I always had to wear tank tops tucked in.

Otherwise, just sulfa (I get hives) and seasonal allergies (not sure exactly what I'm allergic to but my money's on pollen). No food allergies, thank goodness!

I'm a freak of nature. I'm allergic to.....antihistamines. They actually cause me to break out into hives. I'm also allergic to dust but that's not as interesting

@yoursilverlining: I'm allergic to sulfa based medications also!! I had to learn I was allergic to it the hard way. Took 3 years for me to finally realize I was allergic to it.

Mold, dust, all penicillin, ceclor, some preservative in a lot of cheap kid food- I can't eat hot dogs or chicken items at a lot of chain restaurants. I have a pretty nasty intolerance to doxycycline & erythromycin, but not an anaphylactic reaction like I would to penicillin or ceclor. And a very mild egg white allergy that only seems to be an issue if I eat too many meringues I still eat eggs though, but I test positive for egg white allergies. I outgrew my red dye allergy! Yay!

EDIT TO ADD: and cats!! haha, but we have a cat & he's not going anywhere! i just try not to have him near my face & i spend more time patting him if i have long sleeves on. it's a tolerable allergy

Something in most hand lotions (especially the scented kind). I haven't narrowed down what it is exactly but my hands (only my hands, up and just past my wrists) turn bright red, get covered in tiny white bumps and start to burn. I went through a spell where I'd have a Benadryl on hand whenever I tested a new lotion. The only stuff I can use is Renew and Eucerin.

I also have bad, usually migraine-inducing seasonal allergies.

DH is allergic to wool. He can tell if something has even a little bit of wool in it because his throat starts to close up. He's fine once he's not touching it, doesn't need an epi pen or anything.

ETA: I'm also mildly allergic to one of my cats...the one with a ton of dander no matter how often he gets brushed. Eyes burn and water, my throat gets scratchy and I can't stop sneezing if I hold him and he hasn't been brushed very recently.
