Anybody here had Alpha Gal Syndrome ?
You may ask, What is alpha-gal syndrome ? (AGS)?
Alpha-gal syndrome (AGS) (also called alpha-gal allergy, red meat allergy, or tick bite meat allergy) is a serious, potentially life-threatening allergic reaction. AGS may occur after people eat red meat or are exposed to other products containing alpha-gal. This shit can set your ass ( & body ) on FIRE! Got bit by a tick about 2 months ago and slowly started to feel itchy, little by little. Thought it was laundry soap, the usual crap that you get allergic to. One night 2 weeks ago I woke up in bed and literally on fire, itching like nothing I have ever felt. It was like I got into 10 different homes of chiggers, rolled around in the weeds. I dug the shit out of myself, slapping myself all over to keep from scratching. So I'm thinking, chiggers or bed bugs, I looked everywhere, even had an exterminator come check the house for bugs. I was hell bent on the chiggers approach since nobody here was having any scratching like I was . Went to the doctor, told them what was going on. When I mentioned I got bit by a tiny freaking tick 2 months prior, they did the Alpha Gal blood test. Came back positive, can't freaking eat red meats, for that matter, almost any meats. I have to go on a Seafood diet, no not the See Food diet. Coincidentally, my neighbor just came down with this same dammed shit. Last edited by ROYC75; 08-07-2021 at 04:57 PM.. |
