That CAN'T be true! / Am I allergic to my boyfriend?
« on: 07/12/2010 23:28:38 »
Hey!
I am allergic to my boyfriend, and I am trying to figure out what exactly I am allergic to. Whenever my boyfriend kisses me I break out in hives/rash/welts etc.. It's nothing huge. The irritation will fade in 20 to 30 min, but it's itchy and bothersome. We have found that I only have a reaction on my face, neck, and arms. I don't wear any body lotion so we have eliminated that. It is only when he kisses me! I have had him switch shampoos, soaps, shaving gels, everything and the reaction still happens. I even had his father kiss my face to see if it was a family thing. Nope, just the boyfriend. I have no other allergies other than penicillin. I think it is something in his saliva because I can't think of anything else we can change that we haven't. I have never had this happen with anyone else. Please help me! I will appreciate any feedback that I get. Thanks.
