    I break out in hives if I take aspirin. (happened as when I was a kid, so I haven't risked it since then).

    The funny this is, it means I cant take things like ibuprofen or PeptoBismol, etc. When I was in the hospital when I had my baby, they put a colored wristband on me that said I'm allergic to ASA (Acetyl Salicylic Acid= Aspirin). The dumb nurses gave me ibuprofen, and when I found out I asked if they hadn't noticed my wristband! The nurse says, "Yeah, but ASA means acetaminophen". LOL. I wondered where those nurses got their training!

    I have some normal and then weird allergies:

    pollen, mold: the usual suspects

    hydrochloric acid: I discovered this when our science teacher had us sample it and the taste buds on my tongue swelled up

    sour patch kids and other similar candies: makes my tastebuds swell and gives me itchy swollen eyes

    Anything really salty: popcorn, cheez-its etc make my tastebuds swell up too

    Albuterol also makes me incredibly weak and light-headed although I guess that is pretty common. Fortunately none of my allergies have proven to be dangerous... just incredibly annoying!
