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, 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

I got the same problem and I'm a nurse. Those raches can hurt pretty bad, so it's definitely a FML

Most clinics are latex free because there are so many people that have a latex allergy. Quit complaining and use latex free.

Some people develop intolerances/allergies by overusing something, or if they only had a mild intolerance to something and they use it daily it can become worse.
