Abstract
- Food-dependent exercise-induced anaphylaxis(FDEIAn), first reported in 1979, is a rare condition characterized by acute cutaneous, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and respiratory symptoms occurring on exertion after certain meals. This article describes 3 patients who developed urticaria, dizziness, abdominal pain, and loss of consciousness if the ingestion of wheat flour-food was followed by exercise within 2 hours. But either exercise or wheat intake alone did not induce any symptoms. Skin prick test showed strong positive responses to wheat flour and bread in all patients. We could diagnose FDEIAn with specific food-exercise challenges.
