Rash around the mouth with tomatoes?
Not an allergy.

Thanks @DrDougMackMD for leading this important initiative, we need to put a stop to this sort of nonsense

[Mariam Hanna MD @PedsAllergyDoc]

Sensitization does not mean allergy. True food allergy is something much smaller. Without a clinical history of reaction, you don't end up at a diagnosis. So that panel food test you just asked for is just a terrible, terrible idea... https://t.co/3ojKXrYDAS @DrDougMackMD

The most misdiagnosed medical condition is #drug #allergy. Any "reaction" to a med is called an allergy. Most PCP fail to see the patient during a rx and even more fail to properly document the reaction. #IgE #medicine

I manage asthma before allergies. Always.

No, the next reaction will NOT be progressively worse. STOP gaslighting patients.

But doc, they had hives.... *shows picture*

Insider secret to help as you sort through a story... when you hear... the NEXT DAY they developed symptom X. It is incredibly unlikely that this is an IgE-mediated reaction to a food.

It should come as no surprise that guidance provided in specialties with rapid advancements has changed dramatically over the past 2 decades. So your assumptions based on your anecdotal past experiences is (1) outdated and (2) simply wrong.

It may come to you as a surprise, but I really don't care what a skin test or blood test is for a given food which you can tolerate if full servings.

The role and interpretation of testing in food allergy summarized in one image! 🤣 #NAPAAC24

[Dr. Dave Stukus @AllergyKidsDoc]

Eczema is a chronic skin condition caused by altered skin barrier. It is not 'caused' by #foodallergy

Very small % w severe refractory symptoms may improve by avoiding specific foods but #eczema still present.

Great study: simply refed prior 'causes' - almost all tolerated
