right..except that dizzy spell and nausea is not an allergic reaction, unless you eat the stuff of course. Sneezing, coughing, swelling, skin eruption, eye irritation, runny nose...those are allergic reactions.
Latex allergy:
"Allergy to latex comes in two different forms. One form is called a "delayed hypersensitivity" which is usually seen as a skin rash at the site where the latex product contacts the skin. This rash can be quite severe. A more dangerous form of latex allergy is an "immediate reaction" to latex. This is also referred to as
anaphylaxis. Anaphylaxis can result in seriously
low blood pressure, breathing difficulty, and even death. Some patients can experience irritation of the nasal passages similar to
hay fever (allergic rhinitis)."
I hope you know that this is not an anaphylaxis shock... with any type of allergy there should be at least some allergic reaction. skin rash, breathing problem, irritation etc..
