[quote=Anonymous]My daughter (now 22) has oral allergy to apples. She went through 3 yrs of immunothreapy for pollen/weed allergies. But, it was known at the time that she had the apple oral allergy.... the allergist thought it might be a reaction to birch. But, it was never suggested or believed that the allergy shots (that included trees/weeds/grasses/cats) would help the oral allergy. And in fact, they did not. She still gets an itchy mouth and swelling of the lips when she eats apples. We did try organic apples. Giant's organic apples made no difference. Wegmans organic apples were better than non-organic. The best was when we take the peels off. But, she doesn't care that much about eating apples, so she just avoids them. Bottom line -- allergy shots probably won't help the oral allery.[/quote]
