TODAY: Skin Prick Test - A Meeting with Allergens

I've had it with these allergies. It's about time that I meet most, if not, all of them face to face.

Okay, I'm playing tough there. I have a thing with needles or sharp objects. It's not phobic though, it's just that I have "a thing" about them, that stresses me to a point. And I know that today I will undergo multiple needle/lancet pricks. My allergologist said that I will be exposed to fifty, take note: fifty allergens today which means fifty pricks as well. Geez.

Well, it was confirmed to me about 5-6 years ago through a skin prick test that I have allergies to seafood, latex and bananas (which as per my allergologist's explanation, has a close relevance to each other) and other stuff. But lately, I've been suspecting that I might have developed a rather more extensive allergy to a lot of things - including the air. So I decided it's about time that I undergo another test. I visited my allergologist today and here's what happened.
