Serious Question........

Hopefully it is not the chicken eggs.
If it is, keep in mind that a lot of people who are allergic to chicken eggs seem to be able to eat duck eggs with no problem.

You might have the perfect excuse to get ducks!

I agree that if you've been eating eggs all along, you probably aren't allergic to eggs. Though it's possible to develop allergies as we get exposed to different allergens, if you can eat store bought eggs, it's highly unlikely you're allergic to farm fresh eggs. When was the last time you had a store bought egg?

I also agree that it's more than likely that you're allergic to something the chickens are eating.

If it were me, I would try store bought eggs just to see how you react. It's possible you're developing that allergy, but I bet not. Then, if I didn't react to the store bought, I probably wouldn't waste my time trying to figure it out. I'd just get the skin test done because it could be ANYTHING that they're eating. It could also be coincidental. You could be exposing yourself to something at the same time that you're eating those eggs. What were you doing those times? Did you have anything else to eat at the same time? Did you visit certain parts of your outside area while collecting the eggs? or while doing chores?

Allergies are sometimes difficult to pinpoint, but the skin test would be a great way to save time and give you peace of mind.
 
15yr old DS has recently developed an egg allergy. All of a sudden when he would eat things with eggs, his tongue would itch. It has gotten worse ove the last year. Now he cant even eat homemade cookies.

In case I missed this from someone else in the thread... DO NOT get a flu shot until you speak to your doc and get thsi checked out. Apparently there is egg white in the flu shot and it could cause an anaphylactic (spelled wrong?) reaction if you are indeed allergic.

Get to the doc.
