A woman suffered a life-threatening reaction after being given blood from another patient with a peanut allergy.
It is believed to be the first time a severe food allergy has passed from one person to another through donated blood.

Bruce, Sorry for the off topic comment. I was not sure how to leave you an offline message. Since next week is Food Allergy Week, I'm inviting all food allergy bloggers and friends to contribute your own personal stories on dealing with food allergies... how you found out that you and/or your child has a food allergy, how you manage your food allergy, some of the things you are doing for Food Allergy Week, and what you want people to know about food allergies. We will post a collection of links to your blogs throughout the week. Interested?
Here's what to do:
1) Visit http://www.checkmytag.com/community.html
2) Let me know you want to join by leaving a comment on today's post (so I can post a link to you!)
3) Spread the word: link to the CMT Community page and/or display our Food Allergy Week banner and/or tell all your pals!
4) Add a post on your blog for Food Allergy Week
5) Stop by our Community page during the week to see your post and read other people's stories.
Hope you'll join us in spreading the word about food allergies...
Ria
