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.

YDI for being a pansy and not eating meat. Animals were put here for us to eat, and if you can't handle it then Grow Up.

Ok first of all being a vegetarian sucks because there are 8 essential amino acids needed for life because we annoy make them urself, the only way a vegetarian can supply these is to eat corn and beans everyday for the rest of their lives in order to provide those essential amino acids and be truly healthy. Next for the most part we cannot digest most vegetables because if their cell wall it can only be digested in your mouth with the amylase in your saliva as soon as you swallow no more digestion. Now with such little vegetables can offer nutrient wise it acts more like fiber pushing it out of the body more quickly than meat. That I'd why u lose weight not exactly the most healthy option. You need to combine meat with vegatbles for a healthy life because meat is poisonous inside you and vegetables pushes it out faster. Also ur given canines to eat meat. As for you number 313 I think ur called a veagan ur not necessarily a vegetarian I'm not sure of ur situation it's likely better than a vegetarians but I doubt you get a wide variety of protein in ur diet

LOL food allergies... Reminds me of an old Chris Rock routine about how we have so much food in America that we have people who are allergic to certain foods. Think anyone is lactose intolerant in Rwanda? Or Ethiopia? Or Haiti? I don't think so. Animals fall into two categories: They are either pets or food. ******* vegetarians... Yer all a bunch of pretentious, self righteous assholes... and you fart a lot. Yeah, this will get buried.

Actually, most adult humans ARE lactose intolerant. It's mainly Nordic people and their descendants who can digest it, presumably because milk was that important to them during primitive times.
