Or should I say intolerances as there is a crucial distinction

I reduced symptoms of eczema greatly but avoiding food stuffs identified in a first allergy test. Although avoiding pet hair despite being on antihistamines proved the greatest improvement.

A subsequent test (later flare up and the benefits of Bupa) presented completely different almost contradictory results and I seemed to benefit from ignoring it.

Is anyone else finding this an inexact science and struggling to identify what's causing problems for them?

Right now I'm feeling very flushed and tight chested after alcohol and it was only beer and a couple of tequilas. Ordinarily I can drink anything.

Maybe we can all find the bad stuff if we work through the patterns where we each experience symptoms
