Alright, so I just ate at my cafeteria, I had some chicken nuggets and put their hot sauce on them, and as soon as I got to my room my stomach hurt, but I just wrote it off as a being due to the spicyness. Then like 10 minutes ago clear out of the blue I am wheezy and coughing like crazy. I don't have any known food allergies, but the exact same thing happened to me when I ate at this chinese grill once.

oh yeah, bottom line, does this sound like it could be food allergies?

iv gotten that befor its wierd, if you have an inhaler take it or have some mint gum (for some reason it helps).  It could be because you have a cold

if it was allergies you would probably know it...

it sounds like possibly something spicy irritated your throat, or gave you a little acid reflux

im sure you'll be fine

yeah I know I will be fine, it isn't that severe of a reaction (whatever it may be a reaction to), I am just curious if I have a food allergy, cause I would like to avoid this

no, I was thinking it was in the hot sauce, or maybe something that was on the grill or salad bar because I also had like half of a cheese burger and a salad

i dont think you can be allergic to anything in any of those foods. it sounds like there was some irritation caused by the hot sauce, spicy foods can definitely fuck up your throat and stomach

Yeah I am going to guess you are right, I figured the hot sauce was the stomach thing but I bet I just had some reflux as soon as I layed down and it went down the wrong pipe into my lungs.

Haha I'm kinda drunk and for some reason I thought you said you had a reaction to eating a Chinese girl. Sorry I can't help with your actual problem though.
