I just need some sympathy, I've become allergic to 2 things I truly have loved all my life.
About 3 years ago I ate a couple of almonds from one of my trees and got a scratchy feeling in my throat. A couple of days later I ate a few more and my throat basically started to constrict. I took some Benadryl and that fixed it, but I realized I was allergic to almonds. Saturday my wife and I braved swarms of peach eating yellow jackets and managed to pick about 30 pounds of peaches. I ate one, and my throat and eyes swelled shut, took a bunch of Benadryl and got it under control after a couple of tense hours. Peaches and almonds are from the same family(with apricots and nectarines) so they are all off limits, and I love all those fruits. Plus I have a bunch of peach and apricot preserves from last year.
