You can read detailed info at health.howstuffworks or allergy-central but my own personal reaction might be useful. I have a severe shellfish allergy that didn't begin until I was about 14. Until then I had minor problems after eating shrimp but now if I had the slightest exposure I suffer from anaphylaxis. My lips tingle and swell up first, this is usually my first warning sign and I have to immediately take Benadryl. I take the childrens elixir since it seems to work much faster. Then my heart speeds up and I have increased difficulty in breathing. The first time this occurred I nearly died since no one knew what was happening or why. Like I said, I'd eaten shellfish all my life without any problems like this. Eventually my breathing was resticted to a tiny space about the size of a dime and it was quite frightening. Now I carry benadryl or a generic equivalent with me in my backpack and car since I never know when someone will use lobster or crab juice as a seasoning without telling me. I tend to perspire when this happens but that might be more due to nerves than to any specific response to the allergy.

What Are 4 types of chemical reactions?
Chemical reactions are those that involve a chemical change and the products are usually different from the reactants. Such reactions are Decomposition, Synthesis, Single displacement and Double displacement.
Do One enzymes can be used for many different types of chemical reactions is this true or false?
True
What are five general types of chemical reactions and how are they identified?
The general types of chemical reactions are:- synthesis- decomposition- single replacement- double replacement
What Are Different Types Of Chemical Reactions That Can Happen?
There are various types of chemical reactions that can occur including: Combination reactions: Two or more substances combine to form a new compound. Decomposition reactions: A compound breaks down into simpler substances. Single replacement reactions: An element replaces another element in a compound. Double replacement reactions: The cations and anions of two different compounds switch places. Redox reactions: Involves the transfer of electrons between species, resulting in a change in oxidation states. Acid-base reactions: An acid reacts with a base to form a salt and water. Combustion reactions: A reaction between a hydrocarbon and oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water.

Can immunization cause a bad reaction in children and adult?
In children as well as adults immunization can cause adverse reactions, even anaphylactic shock.
Do One enzymes can be used for many different types of chemical reactions is this true or false?
True
What is the theory if the Aim is to study the different types of reaction?
The theory is what you are trying to prove by studying different types of reactions. A theory is a statement of belief. "The author intends to show that (blah blah blah) through the study of multiple reactions." Your theory is the LAST thing you'll write in your paper if possible.
What are the allergic reactions to amoxicillin in infants?
An allergic reaction can be hives or even a severe reaction such as anaphylactic shock. If you have any concerns regarding the medication you are on or the symptoms you may be having call your doctor immediatly. Severe allergic reactions can cause death.
Types of nuclear reactions are?
There are four types of nuclear reactions. Fusion Fission Radioactive Decay Artificial Transmutation
