Suggest Treatment For Alpha Gal
I have recently been diagnosed with alpha gal. My Dr. told me to quit eating beef and pork with no known cure or treatment for it . Is there any and where might I go to seek help. You must also know that I am a southerner and enjoy my meats for bbq purposes, smoking a head of cabbage the rest of my life just won't cut it. Appreciate any help that you might be able to give.

Alpha gal allergy is known to decrease with time, may be over few years.
Let me give you the best options available.
1st - Avoid the allergy causing meat for sometime till your allergy abates.
2nd - Avoid being bitten by the lone star tick because you are a southerner.
3rd - Consult your doctor for regular followups.
4th - Homeopathy can to certain extent give you symptom relief.
