You may have Alpha-Gal Syndrome (AGS), a rare but serious allergic reaction to the alpha-gal sugar found in mammalian meat. AGS is often misdiagnosed as other allergies, such as food allergies or tick bites. However, it is important to get an accurate diagnosis and treatment for AGS, as it can lead to life-threatening anaphylaxis. AGS is a type of delayed hypersensitivity reaction that occurs 3-6 hours after eating red meat, such as beef, pork, lamb, and venison. It can also be caused by eating other mammalian products, such as dairy products and gelatin. Imagine enjoying a lovely picnic in the woods or an exotic barbeque, only to find that your body's responses have transformed your beloved delicacies into your worst nightmare. Your hives, indigestion, or severe respiratory distress may all be connected to an unexpected bite. AGS is caused by a tick bite that transmits the alpha-gal sugar into the bloodstream. The body then produces antibodies to alpha-gal, which can trigger an allergic reaction when the sugar is consumed. Symptoms of AGS can vary from person to person and can range from mild to severe. The most common symptoms include: Hives Itching Swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat Difficulty breathing Wheezing Dizziness Fainting In severe cases, AGS can lead to anaphylaxis, a life-threatening allergic reaction that can cause rapid blood pressure drop, airway closure, and shock. Diagnosis and Treatment of Alpha-Gal Syndrome AGS can be diagnosed with a blood test that looks for antibodies to alpha-gal. Your doctor may also recommend allergy skin testing. There is no cure for AGS, but it can be managed by avoiding foods that contain alpha-gal. Your doctor can help you create a food avoidance plan.
