    I have a similar issue with some alcoholic beverages. One swig, hot flushed face, even got hives a couple times. Bizarre.

          Ask your family doctor (or whichever primary car provider you have) to give you an allergy & immunology consult for an allergen skin test. That'll get to the bottom of the issue. In the meantime, avoid eating things that give you those symptoms.

            I believe taking an almond, peanut, walnut, or especially apple suppository would cure this up right quick for you.

              Google didn't turn up a bunch of similar fools like me with the same problem asking for advice on the internet, like every other problem known to man. So I had to take my internet advice seeking elsewhere. Got a physical 2/2, will add this to list of problems to discuss with doctor like knee that doesn't like to bend and penis that's irresistable to teh womens.

                    Just take allergy medicine and you're good. It sounds like a mild reaction. Who says its going to get worse? It could go the other way too. You could grow out of it.

                          Try doing a candida cleanse. Obviously you are developing an allergy for those nuts and your belly has a yeast overgrowth in your intestines (99% of people who have taken antibiotic will develop this) which is causing acidity so when you eat the apple, it is giving you an allergic reaction.

                          unbelievably google didn't really help me with this question so I will turn to my 2nd family, as no one in my 1st family shares any of these problems.

                          So I'm 25 and I'm not allergic to anything. Or I wasn't. Starting a year or two ago whenever I eat almonds especially, but also walnuts and apples, I've had a near instantaneous hot face sensation. No difficulty breathing or swallowing, no itching or swelling like the internet says is common. Just a noticeably flushed and hot face.

                          Since I'm a man I have been treating this condition by eating as many almonds and walnuts as I can trying to barrage my dumb body and tell it that these things are fine for it. I come asking r3v because I just ate some peanut butter and got the same sensation, which I've never noticed before.

                          So has anybody experienced this from any foods? Did it get worse or better over time, and does eating a shit ton of the foods that do it to you make it better or worse for you?

                          Thanks bitches

                                I still vote for the suppository method. Sure-fire solution, trust me.
