I became allergic to red meat when I was prego with my son that was allergic to it. He grew out of it ( and is baking a ham in the kitchen currently) while my allergies have just gotten worse. I didn't have any food allergies before I had kids.
The best meat I ever had was at the neighbor’s farm next to the farm of my great aunt and uncle. He butchered his own animals and grew his own fruit and veggies. Also my grandparents and great grands mostly grew up on farms or were sharecroppers and they ate red meat and pork a lot but they were also burning lots of calories
I used to like it just fine. Meat hasn't even smelled good to me in years. I know it makes me sick. No one should be saying any blanket statements about diets. I may be vegan now, but my mother loves to remind me I liked the Atkins diet. These days I just go with protein and produce.
But, I've seen BP diets. Inflammation diets. Low sodium diets. From doctors. Even my neurologist gave me a diet to get rid of migraines.
Whatever works for your body. I’ve known vegans who had to go back to eating meat for health reasons. Unfortunately most vegans I’ve met have been kinda annoying but not all. I just hate the blanket statement that meat is terrible for you when if prepared right can be a good source of protein and minerals
The actual problem is people don't know how to make nutricious meals, and then blame the meal. If I'm picky I don't worry because I take multivitamins. They're actually called snake oil these days. But, whatever. Look who's healthy, it's not the people that refuse to make sure their body gets the nutrition it needs.
Failing at nutrition is just easier to do when you're vegan.
I got food poisoning in college from eating some bad mushrooms (not the magic kind) and couldn't eat them for something like 5 years. The very idea of eating them made me sick to my stomach. Then one day I started liking and being able to eat them again.
Not that I know of. Road trips through Texas, it was never a destination. But, I was very disappointed the allergy didn't go away after I had my son. The doctors told me it would. I also get a bit irritated when he says he doesn't like the goods I miss, because he never did. Not even from the very beginning! 🤭
Quick wiki shows the distribution for the Lone-Star can be almost the entirety of the Eastern USA, minus the more Northernly states such as Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Vermont, New Hampshire, and the North of Maine. So even someone who hasn't spent much, if any, time in Texas might have come into contact with one.
Not sure if it would help though, beyond simply knowing why it happened.
Similar thing happened--though not allergies--to my wife. After one of her pregnancies she started getting digestive issues when eating red meat. It was linked to her gallbladder. She's not quite vegan now, but she doesn't eat much meat.

The body does weird things sometimes.
This is how I am with anything that tastes like mince pies because of an incident involving a piece of cake and a wasp 👀
Lies, there are no girls on the internet.

Have you ever been bitten by a [lone-star] tick?

I also had rhesus syndrom so bad my blood type went from ab- to ab+ for at least 12 weeks after giving birth. I'm glad your wife is alright.
Wow, I didn’t know that was a thing. Childbirth is serious business! Likewise glad you’re good now.
