[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You tolerated beef with a tick-based red-meat allergy? Any specific symptoms? I thought people with that allergy could never eat red meat again.

To answer your question, I don't like meat that is hard to chew, even if it's the most flavorful. I DO love red meat, though. Filet mignon is the most tender (and bland) piece, so if you didn't like it, either they overcooked it or you not appreciate the lack of flavor, particularly if all they added was salt. I have to say, restaurant food is way too salty for me. But every Christmas I make beef wellington with filet mignon - yum.

I was told when I was initially diagnosed that an alpha gal allergy disappears or ant least significantly lessens overtime (1-3 years) as long as you aren’t exposed to a tick bite again.  When I was initially diagnosed I could not eat in restaurants that served red meat due to cross contamination but can now eat red meat/mammals without issue but chose not to eat them until the one time exception yesterday.

Interesting, thank you, I may have been thinking of a different tick-borne allergy then. I'm glad you can eat red meat again, even though you didn't like this particular one![/quote]
