Anaphylaxis Due to Mustard Allergy

Anaphylaxis Due to Mustard Allergy


I have to admit this is the first report I've read of a severe anaphylactic reaction to mustard.
Emily's family found out about her allergy to mustard in late 2006, when a slice of bread with mustard resulted in an allergic reaction that almost killed her. The mustard caused an allergic reaction inside her throat, causing it to shut down rapidly. There were also giant hives across her face, shoulders, and neck.

Mustard allergy appear to be quite rare, and is more commonly seen in European countries such as France.

A lengthier version of Emily's story also appears in the Boston Local News. I have to agree with her mother when she said that, together with Emily's peanut allergies, it'd be a tough ride when she goes to school.
