guess I missed the wife killing thread........whew!

Shawnee123 · 04-08-2009, 02:07 PM

It was a beaut!

It's wise to be cautious with something like that.

I'm sorry to hear that, Dana.

A friend of mine with nut allergies didn't know she had consumed something with nuts in it -until her forehead swoll up - she looked like a gorilla. Luckily no anyphalactic reaction, so we all had a really good laugh and took lots of pictures.

Have you seen the movie Hitch?

wolf · 04-08-2009, 04:01 PM

I really like Snoopy.

The thing with Charlie Brown and Lucy and the Football makes me sad no matter how many times I see it.

Queen of the Ryche · 04-08-2009, 04:35 PM

Haven't seen Hitch, Dar. Guessing thre's a similar scene?
And gotta love ya Wolf. Schroeder was my favorite. Where else can a 6 year old boy be referred to as a "pianist?"

dar512 · 04-08-2009, 05:12 PM

Hitch is one of the better recent rom-coms. And there is an allergy/expanding face scene.

I had a Schroeder sweatshirt when I was a kid (I played piano). On the back it said, "To those of us with real understanding, music is the only pure art form."

Oh I hate when that happens. I've had similar reactions to other things. Can be quite amusing. But walking around like a beacon isn't much fun.

I had a work colleague (and psycho-friend, but that's another, very long story) who had to carry round ready loaded adrenaline shots. She once went into shock because her boyfriend had eaten something with chilli powder in it and kissed her about an hour after. Full on ambulance and intervention job.

I've only ever had two really serious (potentially lethal) allergic responses that I can remember. Though I believe I may have had one as a toddler as well. The last one was, I dunno, fifteen years ago, or something like that....actually, no, more like twenty. So, I figure I'm not such a risk these days. One of the full on responses was to egg when I was a kid. I now eat eggs as a regular part of my diet and don't react.

Remember that Canadian girl who was supposed to have died from a peanut butter kiss? It turns out that's not what she died from.

I guess beware of asthma if you have other allergies.

I think it was the thread about the woman with 38KKK breasts. It drifted some.

Dana, do you carry an epi-pen?

If peanut cake meal is used in the culture medium during vaccine manufacture... is it possible that a few stray peanut proteins could remain in the finished product? If so, could those proteins, along with the adjuvents in the vaccine, designed specifically to illicit an immune response, cause or contribute to a peanut allergy?

wolf · 04-09-2009, 01:15 AM

I had no idea about the peanut cake meal thing, but I've been blaming all these new-fangled vaccinations for things we used to just get as children for the rise in peanut allergies ... think back ... if you're over or around 40 ... while you were growing up did you know anybody with a peanut allergy?

I don't remember knowing anyone with asthma, either ... well, except for that one weird fat kid that wheezed all the time and had a note to skip gym. Actually, I made that up. He wasn't overweight.
