Recognizing Symptoms

First and foremost, you need to recognize the symptoms of an allergenic reaction. Typical symptoms can include:

• Hives,
• Shortness of breath,
• An itchy throat,
• Swelling of the tongue or throat area,
• Nausea or vomiting,
• Diarrhea,
• Dizziness.

If any of these symptoms occur after consuming the pizza, you may be having an allergic reaction.

Immediately Stop Eating

Stop consuming the pizza immediately if you are noticing any allergic reactions.

Taking an Antihistamine

If the allergic reaction is mild (itchy throat, hives, etc.), then over-the-counter antihistamines can help alleviate these symptoms. You should already have these available if you are aware of your allergies. Follow the instructions provided with the medication.

Seek Emergency Medical Assistance

In case of severe reactions such as difficulty in breathing or dizziness, it's important to seek emergency medical help immediately. This could be a sign of anaphylaxis, a potentially life-threatening reaction that requires immediate medical intervention.

Follow-up with Your Doctor

Make sure to follow up with your healthcare provider or an allergist after the incident. They can confirm whether the pizza ingredients caused the reaction, and make recommendations to prevent future incidents.

Allergy Immunotherapy with Curex

If you have frequent allergic reactions to common foods, it may be worth looking into allergy immunotherapy, a treatment designed to desensitize you to allergens.

What is Curex?

Curex identifies and targets the exact proteins that trigger your allergic reactions and creates a personalized therapy to teach your immune system to tolerate these proteins. This therapy may reduce your symptoms and possibly eliminate your food allergies over time.

How Can Curex Help?

Their therapy uses extremely small doses of the allergen, gradually increasing the amounts under the supervision of a healthcare provider. Over time, this could potentially desensitize your immune system to the allergen and reduce your allergic responses.

Preventing Future Instances

If it's confirmed that you have an allergy to Wheat, Milk, or Soy, consider making it a habit to check the ingredient list of food products before purchasing or consuming. Notifying restaurant staff about your food allergies is crucial as most food establishments will take extra steps to prevent cross-contamination.

Remember, while allergies might make selecting food items a bit more challenging, many delicious alternatives cater to various dietary needs. Stay safe and enquire about what the food contains before making a purchase.
