I don't know where to post this?
I've been to allergists, last one had too complicated method of exploration. 20 years ago, saw allergist that at the end gave me a pile of lists of EVERYTHING I COULD USE. Much easier to not have to look for ingredients in every product or food that I buy. This included brand names products.
I live in Redondo Bch. CA. I also live near Phoenix - Sun City West. If you know any allergists there?
Do you know of a Dr. that gives one a list like that. Mari

Hello @mari- I apologize for the delay in my response.
I believe that posting your Allergy question in "Just want to talk" https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/other/ would be best.

I can imagine how challenging and time consuming it is to read every label when shopping. Here is a link to the Phoenix Mayo Clinic appointment line http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63 where you can request an appointment for food allergy investigation including the food and food additive challenges department.

Do you suffer from just food allergies? or seasonal and environmental allergies as well?

I HAVE many allergies - the blue dye in detergents etc. Will I get a print out of what I AM ALLOWED TO USE after appointment?once had a stack of papers w the brands and products that i am Not allergic too.Marian Dooley<br><br>
