Had a patch test. Said I was allergic to several trees, dust mites and a few foods but nothing major.

Hello
How do U know you're allergic? Do U break out in a different kind of rash than PN?
Scary especially if it's an anaphalatic reaction affecting breathing- swelling of the throat tongue face etc
Luckily I've never had any allergies or allergic reactions 2 medicine knock on wood😊
However everyone has different reactions 2 various medications
Our bodies immune system is very delicate & any little change can upset it & cause it 2 go haywire unfortunately
Take care
Finally a nice cool crisp fall day🍁

Must have been so terrifying/ scary - sorry 4 your terrible situation on top of this nasty PN
What did U take when that severe allergic reaction occurred? Hopefully U went 2 the Emergency Room
Is the allergy specialist going 2 test 2 C which medications U R reacting 2 ? That's scary as well as U might have another severe reaction but @ least they will find out which particular medicine or specific ingredient in the medication is causing your reaction
Good luck when U meet up with the allergist. At least if U do suffer another severe reaction they will B there in the room with U 2 provide an immediate antidote
You mentioned about missing a step or a missing link
Maybe dermatologists should also send all of us PN patients 4 allergy tests? Who knows?
Definitely more research needs 2 B done 4 PN 4 sure
Take care❤️

Yes, I have, and my answer is the same as ThisOldBoat's.

Helena that had to be Awful! Sounds like when my asthma and copd get to playing, but my face doesn't swell up. I'm so glad you made it through that!
