My long time chronic lyme went full blown neuro about 4.5 yrs ago...I'm in a relatively good place now.

But it seems I am becoming allergic to more and more lately. I got kitty asthma about a year and half after going neuro, so we had to re-home our cats. I've had dust allergies now also for a while, but now they have gone hyper drive.

Tonight thought I was in a sneezing, wheezy breath and drainage overload for about and hour and half right after I colored my hair...but I've been coloring my hair with the same product for 30 years.??

I also cheated and had pizza for the first time in over a year a few hours before that...?? [confused]

Time to take a look at Mast Cell Activation Disorder:

Could be the pizza .. could be the chemicals in the hair color. I am unable to tolerate either one.

Thanks for the link to the links... my brain still isn't able to digest things I am not really all that familiar with..but I will take it to my substitute LLMD (she's pretty unresponsive and forgetful, hope my regular doctor comes back soon).

How does your body respond to hair dye or pizza? I've also started plant based testosterone cream treatment...because all my hormones are now flat lining.

I had a very stressful day Saturday that lead to heightened sensitivity to sounds, nightmares and lack of sleep 2 out of four nights.

My throat closes up when I'm around chemicals. My hairdresser schedules my haircuts hours away from any color or perms that she does.

Pizza .. same thing.. throat closes up in response to most of the ingredients, esp tomatoes. Haven't had any in a long time.

Heightened sensitivity to sound .. sounds like one of the symptoms of MCAS as well... though many with Lyme also report having it.

I hope you can sort things out and feel better soon!

It could be that your immune system needs strengthening- drinking lots of orange juice at breakfast and taking Eleuthero (Siberian Ginseng)

in the morning (but never at night if you want to sleep well.)
Also, my husband who reads up on any topic that comes

his way and, as a result, is something ofa walking encyclopedia, says that you can defeat allergies by taking B vitamins -

that allergies are often a result of a vitamin B deficiency.

EWT, maybe you got bit again (most don't even know they were bit). I was allergic to our cats and so many things in our home. It got better though.

Each bite is different from the last (at least for me it has been). You might do another blood test for lyme.

I can relate ...it all started when i lost my gut microbiome ...a post was there about a lady who cleared her mcad after doing antiparasiticals ...ascaris and giardia was definitely a insult to my gut ..and the holes they left let all kinds of food in ...

i am going to try probiotic implants ,bone broth ,sourkrout juice and slipper elm with restore ..in hopes of rebuilding after this rifampin and iv abx stint

Most people with lyme has increase in allergies.

Whatever name of the 'new' disease you got, it's extremely common (more common than uncommon, in my opinion).

Having no increase in sensitivity and allergies would be the exception.

Keep treating, binding, cleaning, supporting organs.

I saw an increase in allergies too. Probably related to hyperactive immune system and dysfunction. My allergies are pretty unbearable right now.

I take allercaps and nettle/quercetan. On really bad days intake Zyrtec (I get dizzy)
