Does anyone have an allergy to Oak?

I guess you mean oak tree.  I am allergic to them.  My allergies are worse in the spring, because the trees are budding and pollen is flying around.  I take allergy shots and they really seem to help.  I am allergic to most trees, grass, weeds, mold, and animals.  My allergies are bad in the spring and fall.  Good luck, allergies can really  make you miserable.

Yay, I'm not the only one!!!  Have you noticed that happens less in the Winter?  It's mostly allergy related, my dentist said I have an extra bone in the roof of my mouth that is common, and that, with the addition of allergies, even if you don't think you have them, the "skin" there strethches, gets tiny little tears and then itches when it's healing...a fast solution is to lightly brush the roof of your mouth so that you don't ake any more tears, rinse with Listerine, and then rinse or drink sips of ice water.  If all else, fails, and if yours seems worse at night like mine, take a Benadryl allergy---awesome stuff and gets rid of it completely!!  this only happens to me maybe once a week during the spring.summer and maybe once a month in the winter

Yes, this could have caused a flare-up. We have many sensitivities. I have one to odor too. A friend sprayed an ozonator (sp?) in our house one time and I was vomitting within 5 minutes. Ug! I also know a hair stylist that could not tolerate the acrylic nail fumes, she did not have Fibro but another immunosuppressant disorder.

You might be allergic to the grass especially if your eyes get red and itchy and you get sneezy or sniffly.

It isn't really possible to have a true allergy to those things because they are just hormones...your body already has these hormones.  What sounds like might be happening is when you have an increased level of hormones (when you took depo, bc pills and had your baby) your body reacted to it by getting hives.  I might go see an endocrinologist, which is a doctor that specializes in hormones.  You could go see an allergist too.

A lot of people have a really strong immune (spelling?) system. This helps them block off a lot of diseases, sickness, illness, and etc. I have been around a lot of poison ivy/oak but have never been affected because of my stronger immune system. The younger you are, the stronger your immune system is.

Poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans or Rhus toxicodendron), in the family Anacardiaceae, is a woody vine that is well-known for its ability to produce urushiol, a skin irritant which for most people will cause an agonizing, itching rash, technically known as urushiol-induced contact dermatitis. In extreme cases, corticosteroids can be used to treat rashes.\n\nAnd for The name Poison oak refers to various species of the toxicodendron genus that grow in North America.Toxicodendron is a small genus of woody trees, shrubs and vines, all of which produce the skin-irritating oil urushiol, which can cause a severe allergic reaction; hence the scientific name which means "poison tree".

Yup.  Me.  I get a rash anywhere sweat collects.\n\nI'm also allergic / extra-sensitive to my own saliva.  I used to play a baritone horn, and I won awards and stuff but I had to quit because it destroyed my lips.\n\nEven now, many years later when I fool around on a trombone, it doesn't take long to bother me.  Its a drag because I love the sound of lower brass.\n\nAnyway, you weren't asking about that were you, so I'll shut up now.  \n\nYes.

I too am allergic to wheat, corn, dairy, cats, house mites and house dust oh and some trees. no grass though. I have been taking Atarax at night, because it makes me sleepy and then Allegra 180 in the am. By the way i was diagnosed with Uticaria, Skin Writing. Get with a good allergist, really push him, make him write a small dose of some form of anti histamine. And, as horrible as it is, keep your child off the foods that make him allergic. But  in saying that, foods may or may not make him itch, it could be just one food. Corn does make me itch. I can sneek a few foods in once in a while. I thank the Atarax and Allegra.\nGood luck.

Yes, I used to get them when i was in my thirties for grass and pollen   dust and mold spore.   They were very helpful,   My alergies have improved to where now I only take an alergy pill if something is particularly bad for me,   hight of the pollen season or going into the basement for a long time

An allergic reaction.

Very, but one shot will not do it.  Generally speaking, you will get shots this year, that will act as a prophylaxis for next year.  \nI am so sensitive to oak trees, for example, that the doc mixes a 1 ppb (parts per billion) of the allergen, the next you I only react very slightly to oak trees, and not to any of the other items I get shots for.\nThat seem pretty effective to me, and WAY worth the once a week shots.\nHTH
