I am not the only one!! And I am so sorry to hear that anyone is struggling with this.. I developed asthma at 19 (allergic to cats..and dogs) and now later in life (I'm 71) I had a sever allergic reaction to Pennicyllin in 2000 and was hiving all over and she said "inside hives too".. and on steroids for 2 years..suddenly I developed something with cinnamon.. in 2019.. face broke out all around nose chin.. dermatologist said it was and allergic reaction..ok..no more cinnamon. Then in Dec 2019 I took Levaquin 500 mg (usually took 250 mg) and it blew a hemorrhage in my stomach..got that healed.. but..it just seems to have snowballed into a mess.. a month after I had my gallbladder out I started the LEAP program after an MRT test ($500 not covered by insurance) ..did that Phases 1-5 and then found out there was a PHASE SIX which lasted several months.. I quit..(I was severely constipated and frustrated and down to 98 lbs) ..so waiting to get off PPIs.. you have to be off a week before allergist can skin test you.. on allergist told me that blood work is the best way to test and I've had some done.. but how much blood.. here's my most recent example of ..you have to be careful of "HIDDEN INGREDIENTS".. doctor said take B12 shots.. ok.. she gave me one.. I gave myself one and the 3rd day my entire digestive system was in a giant "charlie hores".. they have cobalt in them and I'm sensitive to metal..so all this to say.. you are not alone.. and you are being prayed for !!! I know what it feels like to just wonder ..what happens if I eat this..??? My family and friends don't understand.. but then they don't get deathly ill eating...God wants us well!! Prayers for you all!!

Thanks for sharing. What is the LEAP program? Were you diagnosed with true allergy or food intolerance?
