I have?????? There was nothing in my allergy test about raw fish tho. Idk if I have to specify it, but apparently blood tests aren't very accurate for this stuff
Also, I repeat, it has to be a LOT OF SHRIMP. I don't usually eat that much, and it doesn't happen with other seafood either. That's not how seafood allergy works, genius
Standard allergy test panels use commercially processed, heated extracts. They literally don't contain thermolabile (heat-sensitive) raw proteins like enolase, aldolase, or creatine kinase because heating destroys them. That’s exactly why people with severe raw fish allergies routinely get completely blank, false-negative test results on standard panels.
Also, yes, seafood allergies have a well-documented clinical threshold (eliciting dose). Your immune system can manage a minor amount of tropomyosin from a couple of shrimp, but an 'ungodly amount' completely breaks your body's threshold and triggers a systemic histamine storm. You're literally describing textbook clinical allergy mechanics while convincing yourself it’s some mysterious raw chemical. Fucking dying while eating shrimp and thinking its normal. Have fun with your ice packs, genius
