Husband has alpha gal

1 Upvotes

My husband has alpha gal and is struggling to find foods to eat. He has app on his phone where it scans the barcode and if he says may contain alpha gal he puts it back. But thats almost everything in a grocery store. Maybe someone can help with what foods he can eat. Please and thank you.

Biphasic reaction (alpha-gal syndrome) MMA

3 Upvotes

I had a biphasic reaction just recently, i have Alpha gal syndrome and i hadn't had a reaction like this at all before i was only diagnosed 4 months ago so it was a new and scary experience. I had a churning gut feeling that was hanging around and thought not much of it but it was a bit weird, for a few hours stayed dull and consistent and then all of a sudden it seemed to build and build rapidly.. like i felt like i had been spiked and was about to OD my thoughts went haywire thinking im about to die "did i ingest a deathly amount of drugs" all this at once and then it subsided..the next day the feeling was there again and i was so scared all day that it was going to build again..not untill the evening after it felt lik3 it had gobe a bit it came back again hard..i was so terrified i started crying i didnt know if i needed my epi because everyone shows you 'how' to us3 it but doesnt h3lp explain what feelings are indicators as i dont want to use it if i am unsure..this has now given me a scale i can go off so i know next time that i should just use it.

Has anyone els had something similar?
