What's in your mouth right now?

Ouch. My mom is allergic to shell fish.., most of her side of the family is... I am not! WOOOHOOO

Shrimp is the ONLY thing...it's so weird. And the allergy gets worse everytime I'm exposed (which, granted, is normal for allergies). Thankfully I'm not to the point where my doctor thinks I need an epi-pen, but he does make me carry Benadryl w/ me at all times and has forbidden me from cooking, handling, or eating shrimp. Even raw gives me a problem...I had to walk out of the fish market in Savannah a few months ago. :(

So yeah...eat a few shrimp for me, LOL
 
how bad is the alergy
swollen toung and throught?
from iodine?

My throat closes and I have trouble breathing. It's really MORE when cooking or handling them than w/ eating them. BUT when I eat shrimp my throat closes and I get pains in my throat. Last time I tried cooking shrimp I had to walk away b/c of the difficulty breathing. I couldn't breathe for 2 hours after. :(
