Wine has always made me feel unwell, but more headache symptoms only. Spirits, especially Vodka, I don’t seem to have any problems with. Therefore it’s safe to say that I’m allergic to wine, not alcohol, in particular the sulphites. I am also anaphylaxis to fish and allergic to penicillin.

I had a bout of itchy and swollen lips many years again and stopped drinking Merlot just because I didn’t like it and preferred cabs and maybes. I had two glasses ofMerlot Sunday night after many years and woke up w major hives. I ended up at urgent care twice for two different shots. I am on day 2 and popping Benedryl and cortisone creams praying no more flare ups.

No other symptoms. Happens with all types of wines including organics. Reds are worse (nearly anaphylaxis) where my throat nearly swelled shut. Also happens with beer, including alcohol free beer. My other allergies are to poultry and peas.

This is a relatively new board certification for medical doctors and they are most interested in helping individuals determine underlying causes rather than treating the symptoms. The do tests for leaky guts and antigens to specific foods. Turns out I have a strong antigenic response to brewer’s yeast and baker’s yeast.

I have started on an elimination diet, but the yeast is tricky because it is in all kinds of things I don’t even think about until after I have consumed it! I am determined to do this elimination diet, however many times I have to start over because of an accidental ingestion! Once I make it 6 weeks, I will start to reintroduce, one at a time, the offending foods. Wine will be my first add back! I will keep you posted of what I learn.

Could be the brand of rose? Because some days aren’t as bad as others…going to test my theory

This has started happening to me over the last 2 years. I’ve never had a problem with wine but now my eyes will itch like crazy about an hour after consumption and I get massive edema under one eye. Benadryl does nothing but sudafed relieves the edema. If I take the sudafed before drinking wine it prevents all the symptoms.

But last night, after only drinking Apothic Reds and the red blends, we opened a bottle of the white. I had 2 glasses with dinner. Well,then I noticed that my face was itching like crazy around the hairline at my forehead and on my cheeks just in front of my ears…and then the hives appeared on my neck! I spent the entire night trying to resist the urge to rip my face off with my fingernails! I have been popping benadryl with little relief. Woke up with my eyes nearly swollen shut! Misery!!!

It has never happened to me before. I had a couple of glasses of barefoot sweet red blend last week and over the weekend a couple of glasses of another inexpensive sweet red I got at the grocery store. No reaction. A few years ago I experienced a headache after drinking Charles Shaw Chardonnay from Trader Joes and haven’t drank it since.

I can feel an itching sensation on my upper chest and neck. I don’t break out in hives, but something is definitely going on. This does not occur with all whites, just some. I do not know what the cause is nor do I have any food allergies.
