Today, I had a food allergy test done because of an ugly acne upswing, and after over a year of vegetarianism, I find out that I'm allergic to soy. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got back the results of an allergy test I decided to get because I felt generally tired after meals. Turns out that I'm allergic to, among other things, meat (yep, is a thing), nuts (of course), milk, egg, rice, carrot, apple, yeast (as in bread), and even soy. Seems I'm allergic to… food. FML
Today, I finally saw a dermatologist due to my unusually severe acne. Now I know I actually have a rare disorder that makes me allergic to my own acne. FML
Today, I had an allergy test. Not only was I allergic to 35 out of the 40 items, they also found out that I'm allergic to the latex gloves my doctor happened to be wearing. Now my entire back is covered in a rash that will last at least another week. FML
Today, I found out that I'm allergic to bacon. FML
Today, I tried to blow my girlfriend's vegan parents minds by cooking them a tofu stir-fry. Being allergic to tofu but wanting to prove my cooking skills, I wore gloves and avoided touching my face. Somehow, I still managed to get it in my eye, causing an allergic reaction that made my face swell up like a balloon. Now her parents think I'm some sort of Martian. FML
Today, I saw the allergist, suspecting a shellfish allergy. I’m allergic to corn, peanuts, oranges, oats, perch, and salmon, but not shellfish. I have a freezer full of food I bought yesterday that I can’t eat. FML
Today, I told my girlfriend that I'm a vegan. She replied, "So, you're allergic to meat?" FML
Today, I finally went to have blood taken for an allergy test I really need. Afterwards, I had an allergic reaction to the bandaid they used on my arm. FML
Today, after years of my very poor diet finally resulted in a long overdue health scare, I declared I must try to live healthier. Also today, I was reminded of my hypersensitive gag reflex (I'm autistic), which causes my body to vehemently protest the consumption of a variety of healthy foods. This sucks. FML
Today, I got a new skin cream for my acne. I tested it on a small patch of skin just to make sure I wasn't allergic. I was, and the reaction didn't stay on that small patch of skin. My left arm is now almost entirely covered in a horrible rash. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

People, seriously, shut the hell up on hating vegetarians. It's a personal choice, and if they're not pushing it on you, then you have no right to be pushing them to eat meat. There are entire countries with the majority of it's people being vegetarian. Do you hate on them? And I really doubt some of you are !00% carnivores. You can't survive on just meat, just so you know. There are other things you can eat besides soy products, and there are other alternatives. Also, you guys aren't being witty or funny with your comments saying, "Oh too bad, just go eat a steak and get over it." You're just sounding like an idiot.

You deserve it, for being a vegetarian. You deserve it for going against the natural way. Humans, just as the simians we evolved from, are scavengers who will eat meat AND fruits/vegetables whenever the opportunity arises. We are meant to eat both. Stop being a jackass.

Ahaha ok, so to the people who tried to say something to me, one of you said "You're comment could not have been anymore stupider" uhh, more stupid I think you mean buddy And the other person said I stick up for animals because I am one... Hmm considering the fact we're all mammals I am an animal indeed, you are too.

sorry about that, and by the way, to everyone else, vegetarians get laid about 40% more than meat eaters. so 267, 268, everyone else? wait in line, suck my dick. back to you, you can still make it without soy, there are hundreds of suggestions on this page. to everyone else, later sausage fest.

If god didn't want us to eat animals he wouldn't have made them out of MEAT. You're basically saying, "screw you nature"

And in addition to my past comment. People who ate vegetarians are usually against hunting, which Is probably the life blood of humanity. Eating other animals and gaining their protein is why the cromagnum and nianderthals could develops into modern day humans. Also, since when is killing and eating animals torture. It's nature, animals die, do cows live rich and fulfilling lives like people? Probably not. Humans eating meat is just like any other predator, we just have our intelligence as aid. Think about next time your about to reach for celery.

For all of you looking for a reply to the actual FML, skip to the bottom. Proud liberal. Are you retarded? Instead of making global generalizations about republicans and vegetarians, actually address the points people make. I don't care about your political party, but assuming that just because someone has a particular dietary choice doesn't mean they belong to a certain party. And you called McCain racist? If he had been running against a white guy you wouldn't have said that, so don't make shit up like that. That's the problem with todays media. They imply people who don't vote for Obama hate black people and are all fascist Klansmen, that hate crimes can only be commited against black people, and only white people can be racist. Somebody called me an idiot for saying that lack of meat caused the acne. I said it probably did, I didn't say for sure. There are hundreds of nutrients that you can only get from meat and we don't know all of them, so how do you know which supplements you need? OD: I take back my YDI. I have thought about it and realized I contradicted myself. But, no your life is not ******, vegetarianism is your choice and therefore you can change it if your body obviously wants you to eat meat. Still, there are soy alternatives so you can get rid of the acne and preserve your values at the same time. Hope it works out.
