I found out about my allergies when I was turning 26. As a child, I was always picky and didn’t like certain foods. When I finally did an allergy test, it turned out I was actually allergic to most of them. There were also foods I never suspected, like beef, coffee, and garlic. I haven’t necessarily overcome my food allergies, but I’ve been able to navigate them and adjust my diet. It takes time and patience with yourself.

I didn’t use any websites for my allergies. I went to the doctor, and we talked it through together.

We used allergy shots, Xolair, and asthma medications (ProAir and Breo).
