Welcome to the MCAS resource site! My goal is to put MCAS resources in one place, so to help navigate this world of MCAS.
My story is like so many others. I have symptoms all over the place, and doctors pass me off to other doctors making me feel well a bit insane. I know my heart is jumping, my lungs are wheezing, my body is sweating, and my throat is tightening, yet well my blood test says I am not allergic to anything. Dang, how can this be possible? And, aren’t we supposed to believe the blood tests?
No more believing anything except myself. Why? Because I am the only one who truly knows what is happening (except maybe my husband who can call me out on a bad day sometimes by looking at my face – my eyes sometimes are the signal). I know that strawberries can take me down like peanuts can for someone allergic to peanuts. My thing is I don’t get hives, I can’t breathe but hey I don’t look sick. If you get me, thanks and I am sorry. If you don’t I hope you never do.
So if you have a story to tell, a resource to share, a trigger that is uncommon, a need that has not yet been met, welcome to the community.
The goal is to help as many people as we can with whatever resources we can share.
To Us! Love and Health!
