Eldest adversely reacted to Soy and I was helping care for him ; very scary .
Youngest son was highly allergic to egg products that I know of and slept a lot early on .
Of course with the youngest ,I sensed jab related responses . His elder sibling also showed symptoms that are jab related .
Parents arenโt open to my concerns , and I have no idea of youngest sonโs 2 . We have never met โฆ
So my oldest son went into anaphylaxis last night from touching a BASKETBALL and I was truly grateful to have a brother who is a doctor that I could call about the situation.
My son never had any reactions to food or anything at all until the day of his 2 month shots.
Literally I took him to the doctor and held him while he got the DTAP, HiB, IPV, and the PCV shots. That morning my mom warned me that I shouldn’t do that, because that’s a lot of vaccines at once and my son was just a little baby. She said she spaced them out for me, and I should space them out for him.
I made fun of her to her face because they give these shots to PREEMIES, for crying out loud. I told her, of course my son would be fine. He was born at nearly 11 pounds! He was a giant! If 2-month-old preemies could handle these things, my giant gigantor son certainly could.
So I took him in and held him while he screamed as he recieved 4 shots for 6 antigens at 8 weeks old.
That evening, I had eggs for dinner — which I had had before — but this time, when he nursed afterwards, he screamed and screamed and screamed. That was the beginning of our personal sorrows with food allergy.
After that, he hardly STOPPED screaming. He would get hives after nursing. He was exclusively breastfed but it was obvious after a few weeks that he now was allergic to foods I was eating.
At 8 months old I took him into an allergist. We got a blood test done. He was allergic to peanuts, all bovine protein (both dairy AND meat, anything from a cow), soy, egg, and latex. He was also sensitive to all cruciferous vegetables.
So I had to drastically alter my diet. He was still exclusively breastfed so even the amounts of those proteins traveling through milk itself were causing problems.
It was horrible because he was allergic to most kinds of proteins and that was a real bummer.
At the first birthday party he ever went to, he touched a balloon and had an anaphylactic response. It was horrifying. We stopped going to birthday parties and I feel like crying just thinking about it.
In about 2018 I discovered heavy metal detoxing and decided to give it a try. I knew that ongoing anaphylactic responses come from GUT PERMEABILITY. Anaphylactic sensitization can only happen when an intact protein enters the bloodstream directly. So I put my son on a detox protocol — and literally after about 6-8 weeks on it, he asked to try a bite of scrambled egg, and I allowed it, and he was actually fine. No response.
So after some serious heavy metal chelation and subsequent gut healing, my son was able to touch and eat a lot of the foods and items he previously couldn’t.
However, peanuts–and apparently latex–are the allergy that haven’t healed.
4 years ago he was exposed by a kid at school lunch, and ended up going into anaphylaxis. I had him drink 3 bottles of nano zeolite immediately before I planned to call an ambulance from the school, but after a few minutes his reaction had reversed. Clinoptilolite zeolites detox histamine, the stuff responsible for anaphylactic shock. So we didn’t need an ambulance that time.
Last night, my son played basketball after dinner with a brand new basketball. After a few minutes his entire back was covered in hives and then the rest of him was, too. I had him drink 5 bottles of zeolite and then I felt like it was time to finally break out the Epipen I have kept within arm’s reach for these 13 years just in case. So we Epipen’d him and called my brother instead of an ambulance.
Thanks, my brother!!
The conclusion was to just monitor him and at the first sign of terrible breathing to rush him to the urgent care or ER. Between the zeolite and the Epipen Jr, that was not necessary. My husband and I stayed up until midnight just watching him to make sure his breathing was okay. I feel so grateful he is fine. I feel a little surprised that I finally ended up using the Epipen I bought for him after his 8 month appointment with the allergist. I feel very grateful I had it around.
We concluded it was the basketball because my husband found a Reddit thread of people with latex allergies who had gone into anaphylaxis after touching that brand of basketball we had just bought. It was my son’s first time trying this brand new basketball.
Here is the deal.
Like I said earlier, a person only becomes sensitized to anaphylaxis when an intact protein ends up in their bloodstream directly.
Intact proteins do not usually come into contact with the bloodstream. We have a stomach to prevent that, specifically. In all of recorded history, there were only TWO recorded deaths from anaphylaxis — one from a pharaoh and one from some dude in Europe in the 1700’s, if I recall correctly — and both were from BEE STINGS.
Because how it works is: you basically have to bypass the body’s natural defenses to get an intact protein into the bloodstream, and the way you do that is INJECTION. Bees inject people with intact protein through stinging. The first time this happens it CAN (though obviously not always DOES) sensitize a person to anaphylaxis. After that, subsequent exposures can trigger anaphylactic responses.
The thing that changed everything with anaphylaxis was the invention of the HYPODERMIC NEEDLE in the last 1800’s. This was the first time human beings had a way to inject proteins into blood streams.
The word “anaphylaxis” was actually coined by a VACCINE RESEARCHER, Dr. Charles Richet, who won a Nobel Peace Prize for the “discovery” of anaphylaxis in 1913. It’s worth it to read his Nobel acceptance speech.
But this vaccine researcher discovered anaphylaxis because he started injecting dogs with food proteins to see what would happen, and what happens is that after they are sensitized that way, they have anaphylactic responses to the food they eat. So Dr. Richet was a real pioneer of discovering how this works.
Not all modern anaphylactic sensitization comes from injection. Beyond injection, GUT PERMEABILITY can lead to sensitization. Heavy metal toxicity and various pesticides and herbicides lead to gut permeability. Gut permeability can now begin in the womb, thanks to the never ending toxic assault on our bodies. Researchers have found plastics, Teflon, forever chemicals, formaldehyde, and more in the umbilical cords of newborns. I have 2 children who never were injected with anything, but who were in my womb while I recieved injections, and they both were born anaphylactically sensitized to peanut proteins.
Anyway, I could talk about anaphylaxis all day. But now I’m tired. I’m glad my doctor brother was on hand to talk me through it in the moment of our stress last night. I’m glad that if we have to live in a world with rampant anaphylactic sensitization, we can also have access to epinephrin and zeolite. It was a scary night last night. We are fine now. No more latex basketballs. The end
