#pemphigusvulgaris

0 posts0 participants0 posts today
Rhyothemis<p>😞 <br>I was cleaning out the pantry and noticed I still had dried persimmons. I had used them to make persimmon tea which is effective for GERD/heartburn. It's been quite a while since I last had the tea; I decided to to use them instead of tossing them. </p><p>Today I have sores in my mouth. Previously I had the same type of sores from eating walnuts. Walnuts can trigger pemphigus vulgaris*. I looked up whether walnut and persimmon allergen are cross-reactive - yes, they are.</p><p>We are moving away and leaving behind the persimmon tree I planted in the back yard, which ought to start fruiting this year. At least I won't be reminded of my disappointment in not being able to eat persimmons on a daily basis.</p><p>* <a href="https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6742533/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/</span><span class="invisible">PMC6742533/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/allergies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>allergies</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/PemphigusVulgaris" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PemphigusVulgaris</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/persimmon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>persimmon</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/walnut" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>walnut</span></a></p>
Rhyothemis<p>I've had mouth ulcers from eating walnuts. Walnuts can induce pemphigus vulgaris, which Dr McGowan mentions is also IgG4-related.
