Reply to comment by Pragmatist203 in How an allergy test works by Monkey-Newz

Oh boy. Don’t come to central TX then! We’re all allergic to cedar here! My allergist was telling me that cedar allergies are the only allergen that people come to him with and say “if you can’t fix my cedar allergy, I’m going to have move out of Austin.” Cedar is bad here.

But I can thankfully say I’m not allergic to watermelon and orange! I love both of those things! Unfortunately, my food allergy is wheat, which is lightly annoying.

My only issue with it is physically handling it. I don't have any problem with the pollen, just the wood. I haven't used it in woodworking since high school, so my only exposure to it is cleaning out volunteers in the fencelines every year or so. Damn birds eat the seeds and drop them out while sitting on the fences.
