I am suspecting that I am allergic to honey, can this be? I am a 41 year old female.
As a chid I suffered for hay fewer and was allergic to grass pollen sheep wool and horses. I �¢??outgrew�¢?? most of these reactions

Lately I am experiencing difficulty in breathing and sinus problems, after a few hours consuming honey.

This honey comes from a specific area. I have used honey before (about 8 months previously) and never encounter this problem before. Could it be that one can be allergic to honey of specific areas?

my daughter is also allergic to honey even if she touches it a little she quickly developes swelling of the lips tongue throat difficulty breathing then she'll start to pass out if nothing like epipen and benadryll have been administered.in our family it is genetic some how. not sure why but all of us have anaphylactic reactions [most of us have alot of triggers including foods meds plants stings and airborn triggers. weird yet very scary and frustrating as some of us have little we can eat.but as a caution, watch out for bees if youre allergic to honey and i have been told by our allergist that a honey allergy can have to do with which plants the honey was gathered from if say youre allergic to clover and you avoid clover honey as a caution you cannot be sure always that the bees used to gather from the mesquite trees didnt have a little that gathered from theclover. or if youre allergic to citrus some clover honer can stil have the pollen from other flowers of nearby plants. my dr said its best to avoid all honeybecause you just cant be sure.
also i just recently learned that there might be a condition that makes some of us allergic to alot of things. and strangly enough its not a true allergic reaction although its still treated with epipens and antihistamines. not sure if its what i have or not but i found it on the mayo clinic site. one is mastocytosis the other is angioedema.for you with alot of allergies or several severe allergies take a look.

I am a 32 year old woman. I have allergies to honey
since I've been a teenager. I break out in hives when
it touches my skin and my mouth and lips become
itchy when I eat it. I have two dogs and I can't buy
dog treats with honey because they make my hands
break out in hives if I touch them. I've had nurses
tell me that it's impossible to be allergic to honey...
but I know I am.

Hi people. Just found your blog site.
I am severely allergic to Honey (and Bananas).
If I eat a teaspoon of Honey or a Banana tonight - I will awaken tomorrow sneezing all day. My nose will run constantly all day and I will end up with a severe Chest Cold for at least a fortnight (and up to 6 weeks). How crazy is that !!!! Have known this since I was 20 y.o. (for the past 32 years).

And I thought I was the only one allergic to honey and banana's. People thought I was crazy. My reaction isn't severe, more annoying really, but still enough to make me avoid both foods. I have an addition to that odd pair. Pistachio's. I have yet to understand what the three have in common which I would be allergic to.
