I'm not sure how limiting the hives are to PIC. Apparently peanuts give of a dust that some are very allergic to (learn something new everyday). He did use a spoon once that had been used for peanut butter and apparently not cleaned well enough and he dropped to the floor. Allergic reactions can also be psychogenic, which bodes even worse for obtaining a medical. BTW: This is a well known allergy. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/peanut-allergy/DS00710 "Peanut allergy affects approximately 1.5 million people in the United States. As the most common cause of life-threatening allergic reactions (anaphylaxis), peanut allergies account for 80 percent of fatal or near-fatal allergic reactions each year. You can reduce your risk of having an allergic reaction to peanuts by knowing as much as you can about peanut allergy and how to avoid peanut-containing products." |
