My daughter we thought was allergic to thyme but we discovered that it was actually the pesticide that is commonly used on thyme that was causing it.

we now grow our own and dont have the issue.

As far as I am aware though you can be allergic to anything.

Answer2:

Thyme allergies are rare but can be very serious. I myself am highly allergic to thyme, the allergy is actually to the oil in the plant and the severity of the reaction can increase each time the person is exposed to thyme oil.

Symptoms range from rashes and hives to throat and tongue swelling, as well as irritation to the eyes and anywhere the oil might have touched. For someone who is highly allergic like myself a bad reaction could be fatal. But not everyone has that strong of an allergy.
