Thank you for responding. I am going to take your suggestion and try doing the elimination test for a few more days than I have. My mom also thinks I might be allergic to some of the same things you are. I have a brother who is highly allergic to milk. It's so hard to find things to eat that don't have some kind of wheat, soy, milk or eggs I can't imagine what you even eat. That is terrible. So sorry!
I have had the scratch test and am allergic to two pages of things like dust, trees, shrubs and such but that has been for the last 20 years and this problem has only been for a couple of years. I'm going to give this a try. I will keep you posted. Thanks for the encouragement to do this.

@mrshubka actually there is quite a bit I can eat! For breakfast I have old fashioned oatmeal with cinnamon, raw honey, blueberries, strawberries and bananas!! Yum!! I can actually have Rice Chex with Oat milk (which is quite good!) for a quickie or a snack. For lunch I have canned fresh caught tuna (READ LABELS!! Bumblebee has soy in it 😳) mixed with avocado (my go-to Mayo substitute) or Justin's peanut butter (again read labels - some Skippy has soy in it!) and raspberry jam on tapioca bread 😂😂. Dinner is basically the same - meat chicken or fish, veggies, and potatoes (sweet or white) with a plant based butter (Kite Hill) which is actually ok. I think they also have a cream cheese with onions and chives thst was delicious !! Simple Mills makes many crackers and mixes that are good. Be careful about vegetable oil - I believe that's ALL soy!! And I have apples either by themselves or with the above mentioned peanut butter. Other than oat or almond milk and OJ I drink mostly water. I always have a bottle of water with me. It takes time to get used to reading labels and figuring how to mix foods together but after awhile it just becomes commonplace. I just found out that aged cheddar and aged Swiss are fine (and I have had no reaction to them!) as the aging process makes them more lactose free. Feel free to question me further. 😁
