[QUOTE="Setterman, post: 3185730, member: 8139"] Y'all are going to find this strange but several years ago I suddenly was unable to eat pork or beef without a severe allergic reaction every time. These reactions were sometimes life threatening and consisted of the usual symptoms associated with food allergies. I have been to every allergist in knoxville trying to figure this out and have never solved the mystery until recently It appears I contracted something known as alpha gal from a tick bite which causes me to be allergic to most mamal flesh. There is a new article where celeb huntress Brenda Valentine describes her battle with the same thing. My point is be careful this spring and spray up to avoid possibly contracting this crap [/QUOTE]
