Again, I had two episodes about a month apart. Haven't had once since.

yes, sorry David Golden. Was trying to do it on my phone. Here is his link and Bio:
http://allergyasthmabaltimore.com/bios/1848580

Dr. Golden graduated from McGill University School of Medicine in 1976, where he also completed his residency in Internal Medicine. He entered a fellowship training program in Allergy-Clinical Immunology at Johns Hopkins University, where he then directed a program of research studies on anaphylaxis and insect sting allergy for 30 years.

Could you be referring to Dr David Golden? I'm having trouble finding a Goldman that matches your description.

Either way, thank you !

Found it; David Goldman. In Baltimore. He has expertise in anaphylaxis and very thorough. Fellowship from Hopkins.

I had an episode of this. I saw a doctor in Baltimore, who had trained at Hopkins. Dr Goldman maybe (sorry can't remember the name exactly). Had two episodes. Carried an Eli pen for a year every time I exercised but it has been 3 years and haven't had another episode.
Some people have episodes if they eat certain foods beforehand. Allergists can do complete food testing. The good news that if you feel yourself swelling or itching while exercising, you can stop!

See an allergist and have him keep think about what foods if any he ate prior to the episode(s). There is a variant of food dependent exercise induced anaphylaxis. If the episode was recent it will be easier to remember what he ate/did that day.

That happened to DH's roommate way back when he had roommates--he had to carry an epi-pen.

OP here. Yes it's very strange and terrifying. Out of no where, my brother is occasionally having severe reactions during strenuous exercise. http://www.etsu.edu/com/cme/documents/asthmaarticle6.pdf

I get a mild form of this - exercise induced hives. It's annoying but not life threatening. And, I agree, it's really bizarre.

I joke that I am allergic to exercise...but I wonder how this is possible?

What is it? Never heard of being allergic to exercise. Is it a really bad asthma attack?

Does anyone know of any doctors in the area with experience treating adult Exercise-induced anaphylaxis (EIA)?
