Petrified of anaphylaxis to food even tho blood test were neg for allergy this fear came out of nowhere and now i can't eat! anaphylaxis a rarity? help

See allergist: If your skin test to food is also negative , then the risk of an allergic reaction is extremely low. In cases like yours when the fear is so profound, i often perform food challenge test at the office just to give you reassurance to get you back on your feet again.
