Has anybody with a peanut allergy ever found a way to taste peanut butter again?

I am allergic to peanut butter, but I still eat it, only once in a while do I get anofolactic shock, which sucks. You should go to your doctor and ask if there is a way you can be amuned to the allergy, they do it with bee venom, why not peanut butter.

MY ANSWER:

VERY BAD idea! I'm severely allergic and I don't even like the sight/smell of any type of peanut product. I NEVER eat anything with peanuts because it's such a severe allergy. You can eat a peanut butter sandwich three times and the fourth time you could die. It's unpredictable and NOT worth it.

Could sinus problems cause vomiting?

I would definitely say that it is possible for a sinus infection to result in a

nauseous feeling. This condition is most likely due to post nasal drip however. Post nasal drip occurrs when the body drains mucus down the back of the throat, as it is unable to control the flow and production of mucus. It is this mucus that may cause one to feel sick at the stomach. The same condition may also be the cause of throat irriation, coughing and even a throat infection.

Also, strep infections, especially among children, can cause nausea.

Can a dogs saliva cure an allergy?

No, there are no healing properties in a dog's saliva. Allergies are caused by the body's immune system reacting inappropriately to a neutral protein molecule and treatment is based upon controlling the reaction in acute cases and retraining the immune system to not react in the long term. Exposure to a dog's saliva does neither of these, and may make allergies worse by stimulating the immune system to react to the saliva as well as whatever else it was reacting to.

What is the closest medicine over the counter closest to Allegra D?

Allegra D, D as in decongestant, contains pseudoephedrine and the Allegra part is a more complicated anti-allergy med. The pseudoephedrine is an over the counter med that you have to actually sign out for now, but need no prescription for of course. This will work wonders on your nasal symptoms. If you are only looking for a decongestant then you could just take pseudoephedrine. Allegra D 12hr or 24hr have quite a bit of pseudo in them so be carefull that you dont take much or if you have an existing heart conditions. Claratin is over the counter, but without the decongestant. Basically you could take the pseudoephedrine with Claratin or take diphenhydramine (Benadryl). This will most likely cause drowsiness unless you have a tolerance to it. What symptoms are you specifically trying to eliminate?
