Hi - I don't have your exact condition, but I have severe life-threatening food allergies, like you, and am very limited in what I can eat. I just found this video on the internet - MTV True Life: I am allergic to everything and there is a boy in this video who has your diagnosis. It is a great watch - only about 40 minutes long. I could relate to these two kids so well I started crying (and I can't cry because I'll react...) http://www.mtv.com/videos/true-life-im-allergic-to-

Allergic to:
Medicines: acetaminophen, albuterol inhaler, atrovent inhaler, polyethylene glycol, senokot, Azo dyes (the # dyes) and PEG in pill coatings.
Inhaleds: tree, grass, weed, mold, poinsettias, latex, peanut, perfumes and colognes, cigarette smoke.
Foods: all legumes(peanut, soy, beans, etc), all nightshades (tomato, potato, tobacco, paprika, peppers, etc), all grains and grasses (including wheat, barley, rye, rice, corn, soy, bamboo shoots, ALL grains and grasses literally), all treenuts, all birds and bird eggs, moldy cheeses, cheeses with annato, all food dyes (the azo dyes also known as the dyes with the # sign), most food additives, cochineal, anything bee (honey, beeswax, bee strings), banana, wines with high sulfites.
I eat: beef, pork, venison, white fish, real dairy butter, plain yogurt, cooked carrots, cooked apples, prunes, white sugar, lemon, pink himalayan salt, coffee, chocolate (plain Baker's unsweetened). Oh yes! I just added sweet potatoes back into my diet - YAY!
I am pretty much a shut-in working from home, eating out is always a "no", and venturing to a bar means calling ahead to see if they will stop selling the peanuts for the evening. It's pretty much a major production for me to go anywhere.
