Patients know what they experience, but is it a true allergic response?

Your symptoms sound like reactions I have heard of to these products. Also, I have seen allergy literature indicating that some allergies when they occur together can be even worse than when they happen alone. I myself have horrible allergies to everything in the NC air, especially weeds. In addition, upon moving here I developed a terrible dizziness disorder that is made worse by MSG products including natural flavors (look it up and you will find that it is quite similar to MSG). Once I eliminated these products from my diet (extremely difficult!! they are in everything!) I found that my dizziness was nearly gone. It would come back when the pollen counts were really high, so I manage that, as well. Good luck!
