[b]I am allergic to the smell of fresh coffee...just a delightful allergy to have.[/b] You think avoiding nuts is hard!

If it makes grandparents uncomfortable, put a shirt on. Your kids will survive wearing a shirt.

My family weekend at the beachhouse led to me seething with rage at my SIL and sending her texts that should never have been sent...but they were true![/quote]

I've never heard/read about anyone having a 'histamine' reaction to the sell of coffee.  Are you sure you just aren't 'intolerant' of the smell?  Do you have reactions to other smells?[/quote]

No other smells. Just fresh coffee. I do have all kinds of other environmental allergies (trees, pollens, grass) as well as oral allergy syndrome, and allergies to about a dozen other things so I am not surprised my sysytem has a histamine reaction to coffee. It makes me sneeze repeatedly, nose gets itchy and runny and my eyes get red, itchy, and weepy.

When my other allergies are more reactive, so is my allergy and reaction to coffee. [/quote]

Well then, let's eliminate the trees, pollen, and grass, as well as the coffee. That's only fair, right?  :roll: [/quote]
