Sorry, but this is absolute, unscientific bollocks. It is not an allergy. If it were the body couldn't tolerate the 60% or so water that the body is made of. Also, in those affected the body doesn't produce a histamine response meaning it's not an allergy.
In short: possibly a real medical condition (though probably psychosomatic in many cases), and 100% definitely not an allergy.

.............."Allergies, also known as allergic diseases, are a number of conditions caused by hypersensitivity of the immune system to something in the environment that usually causes little or no problem in most people".................... Sounds like she has an allergy alright, although a very rare one. But I worked with a lot of "foreigners" in Australia over the years who had the very same allergy and they seemed to get by ok. Story was they hid their money under the soap.

Hate that expression "Thainess", I cringe every time I hear it. Reminds me of the brain-dead morons over at TVF who used to somehow fit it in to every comment they posted.
