Today, I went to the allergist. I found out that I am allergic to dogs, cats, wool, fleece, and pet dander. I'm currently planning to go to school to become a veterinarian. FML

Today, after 3 years of studying to be a veterinarian, I found out I may not be able to continue. It's not because I'm failing my classes, but because my body has developed an allergy to cats. FML
Today, I went to the doctor for allergy testing. Apparently, one of my worst allergies is cats. I'm a "crazy cat lady" who loves anything cat-related and has 3 cats. Allergy shots, here I come. FML
Today, I was loving on a dog at work. I noticed her fur was coarse and short and I'd never felt anything like it before. I broke out in hives all over my face. This happens whenever I'm around any cats, guinea pigs, or rabbits and now some dogs apparently. I'm in school to be a vet tech. FML
Today, I went to meet my boyfriend's parents for the first time. While I was there, I started to get really itchy. Turns out they have 5 cats. Guess what I'm allergic to? FML
Today, I visited my doctor upon coming home from University. I found out that I'm severely allergic to our pet bunny, which has resulted in a rash taking over my body. She suggested that we get rid of the bunny. I told my mom. She told me to come home less often. FML
Today, I discovered that I have developed a latex allergy. I'm a third year medical student. FML
Today, I found out I'm allergic to soil, pollen, dust, mold, the colors green, yellow, orange, black and grey, most metals, wood, carpet, drywall, most hygiene and beauty products, and plastic. Basically, I was told to avoid the entire planet and everything man-made. 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 was at the doctor's getting a check up. He asked me if I was allergic to anything, to which I blurted out, "Cats." He gave me a weird look and said, "Don't worry, I won't give you cats." FML
Today, I bought a kitten. I've wanted a cat for years and decided to finally buy one now that I have my own apartment. It turns out I'm allergic to cats. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Because I'm sure this person isn't the only one in the world thats allergic to dogs and such and wants to be a vet.

I've often joked that I'm allergic to work, when I sneeze at work. I guess it'll be no joke for you if you choose not to change your career plans.

I am in vet school. There are MANY classmates of mine that are allergic to nearly everything. Some get allergy shots monthly or so, some take oral meds. If you are determined to be a vet, you can manage your allergies! Seriously, don't get discouraged--it's not the end of the world, and it certainly is not the end of your future career.

haha i'm really tired and when i first read this i thought it said vegetarian. i was worried about you eating cats and dogs. haha my grandma is allergic to cats and i always say just take benadryl, but i guess that doesn't always work. ahha. sorry though, that really sucks.

I really would't worry about it. Im exactly the same, had pets all my life and been fine then last year developed allergies to anything with fur and dust etc. Im also training to become a vet and it doesn't stop me one bit. As long as I take an antihistamine each morning I don't even notice my allergies so just go for it. Don't let one set back stop you achieving your ambition, Im certainly not going to, being a vet is all I've ever wanted to do so if I have to take a tablet every day to get there then so be it =)

wait, i didn't explain that well. i thought you meant you were becoming a vegetarian because you were allergic to cats and dogs. hahaha i really misread that. hahaha
