#as my allergist said I’m ‘just a very allergic person’ 🙂

how come you can't eat chocolate :( ?

I developed a severe nickel allergy at 18 :( eating foods high in nickel makes my skin crack and break and then break out in hundreds of tiny little blisters on my hands and face, in super severe instances it can also have an anaphylactic effect but luckily that’s only happened to me twice. I have to be super careful about the amount of nickel I consume and I try to avoid chocolate, any kind of bean or legume, soy, several different vegetables, and a bunch of other assorted random foods. Avoiding soy is the hardest logistically, but avoiding beans and chocolate hurts my soul. Fun thing about nickel allergies is they can kind of come and go any time throughout your life, depending on your body, so I’m always hoping mine will decide to leave me one day but so far no luck!
