    Possible, yes. Not likely though with most things if you have them regularly - your body kind of recognises it as something that isn’t a threat.

    I’m of the opinion that more often than not allergies are your body reacting to the wrong thing. Take seafood allergies for example. The first time your face swells up and gets itchy after eating seafood isn’t the time you had bad seafood - that happened the time before. When you ate the bad seafood, your body reacted and got over it with minor fuss. However, it then tags seafood as the cause of what happened, and the next time you eat seafood you have an allergic reaction.

    It is also sometimes possible to overcome allergies, although this is incredibly difficult.

      You are not a doctor and your opinion is not correct.

        Hi there. In the future please report any answers that don’t provide credible sources, as they’re in violation of rule 9.

        I did not claim to be a doctor, and I presented it as an opinion, so I don’t see how you’re justified in making personal attacks here.

              You should feel bad for giving advice that can kill. You should not feel bad for correcting that bad advice and potentially saving lives.

              Trust me. It’s my day job to make decisions where the wrong one can result in deaths. If you don’t feel bad when you inevitably make such a mistake, you are a sociopath and need to be told as much.

              Besides the only reason I brought up my opinion of how he should feel is he tried to say I was attacking him, which at no point have I done.

                Where did I give any advice? Where have you offered any other information instead? All you’ve done is jump off the handle to say that I’m wrong and criticise me personally.

                  What are you talking about? I do not mean “you” specifically. I certainly only said he was wrong exactly once, and I clearly referred to op in third person.

          Yeah, that’s fair. I don’t think any lines have been crossed (yet) but the tone in the thread is certainly veering close to it. It’s also possible I missed a comment. Please don’t hesitate to report any uncivil or otherwise rule breaking comments.
