Mint Allergy = Anaphlatic shock

Does anyone else have this problem? Mint is in so much I am having trouble eating salads, and desserts out...when I tell the server about my allergy they look at me like I have two heads.
Now my allergy is so bad getting it on my skin causes all kinds of problems...I had poison Ivy so I put some cream on it and my face blew up and blotches all over my upper body and head. I had to get a injection and put on Benadryl and prednisone......

Hello~I am so sorry you are experiencing these reactions. I certainly would see an allergist and have tests run and ask if there is anything you can take to help alleviate the symptoms.
