Default chicken allergy question

Hi
Does anyone know anyone who's allergic to chicken? Are there other
allergies that those allergic to chicken are often allergic to?

Hubby is allergic to chicken, and has been having similar reactions to
other foods (not poultry). Trying to figure out what to rule out! It
seems like it could be worstershire sauce, or pork, or cake, or
garlic!

Worcestershire sauce contains anchovies and soy any hints there?

My oldest son is allergic to chicken. He's also allergic to eggs, peanuts,
strawberries, cinnamon and crab meat. Each person is different though.
Your husband's allergies are as individual as he is. You should probably
take him in for testing if his allergies are severe.

My wife's most recent allergy tests showed an allergy to chicken. She is
also allergic to tomatoes, potatoes, lettuce, salmon and trout, beans,
corn, oatmeal, yeast, grasses and molds.

I've never heard of anyone who's allergic to chicken. It's not common
to be allergic to a meat protein. But it's possible. Go see an
allergist ASAP and get diagnosed properly so he'll know what he has to
avoid...

It's not all that unusual to be allergic to chicken. That's why they ask
you before you get a flu shot if you're allergic to eggs or chicken. I'm
allergic to feathers and flu shots but not eggs or chicken.

Actually your Hubby is highly unlikly to be allergic to chicken! But
possibly to something the chicken ate or to some spice used on the
chicken. Man are predominantly a carnivore so real allergy to meat of
anny kind are wery rare! Do go and have a proper test made - but don't
belive blindly in it - even that may be faulty!

OK it sounds very individualized, so I guess we'll force him to go to
the doctor. It's not a deathly allergy, more like a flu/mild food
poisoning. Definitely not fun.
