A member asked:

Strawberry and orange allergy? why me?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sensitivity: We do not know why a specific substance, drug or product will cause an allergic reaction in a given person. It is obviously a sensitivity of their immune system and of course requires exposure to the agent which in your case were strawberries and oranges.

Im allergic to mold. This morning, I threw away a bag of forgotten oranges and there was a small cloud of mold spores that went in the air. I am now coughing quite a bit. Can I take more than 1 allergy pill in a day? I take one regularly at night?
