Food Allergies/Expert Profile

David Pearson

Grenada

Available

Expertise

Any in the field I believe. Only experience of questions that get asked will tell.

Experience in the area

I am a retired medical academic from the UK. I have done major research on Food Allergy and have been a government adviser in the area. 30 years experience running an allergy clinic. And undergraduate and post-graduate teaching.

Organizations

Well, apart from the FRCP, I'm no longer active in the area. I'm too busy writing books. And I no longer have the cash to go to international meetings. But was active in many.

Publications

Will 120 scientific papers help? Chapters in books. Patient advisory materials. Magazine articles. TV appearances. Live and recorded. National and international invited lectures, etc. It was my job for 40 years. Do you think I count!

Education/Credentials

MD, PhD, Postgraduate Diplomas etc. Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians. etc. But I don't want that put out on the net! Just to let you know!

Awards and Honors

irrelevant.

Past/Present Clients

Too many to count, patients of course and a large number of all sorts of corporate consultancies and considerable work as an expert witness in the Courts. I'm volunteering because your Greek expert has been so helpful, I thought I'd offer something back.

There are many reasons for your symptoms and food allergy is not one of them. From what you describe you have been submitted to so-called allergy tests long-abandoned by responsible practitioners. My advice?

Anaphylactic shock is an acute emergency with a sudden and disastrous fall in blood pressure. It is potentially fatal if not treated rapidly. It is most commonly, but necessarily, due to an allergy. Apart

2012-05-15 penicillin/mold:

Yes. It is possible. Not all natural penicillium green moulds produce penicillin and most do not produce a great deal. But, in theory at least, it should be possible for a highly allergic person to eat
