Linda, away back, long time ago we had a CH growing, grinding, and 
marketing his own chile powder blend. You will likely recall Calvin?
Calvin and I became good friends, and exchanged email and gifts back and 
forth between Texas and BC. His "real" job was in the oil patch in Texas 
  and owned his exploration/drilling company. Calvin Donaghey became 
seriously allergic to all things nightshade, potato, tomato, ALL peppers 
regardless of their heat content, etc., etc. He was forced to not only 
quit with his hobby, but faced a monumental change in hie lifestyle and 
eating habits. Even the places where he was working created problems, as 
the tepin grows wild along the fences in great profusion.
His problem was likely extreme, however this was poor consolation for 
him. Your problem I would imagine is, as Tina has said, caused by 
different circumstances, and as I do not possess a medical degree, I 
have no idea what that circumstance could be. I would, however request a 
cortisone preparation such as Amcinonide .01% which must be prescribed.
Cheers, the really OLD guy in BC Doug
