Immunizations and Allergies

[ChemistryExperiment]

I lost immunity to ALL my childhood shots. And I gained an allergy to eggs. Is there any way to get the vaccinations? I can't get the flu shot because I almost ended up in the hosptial the one time I tried it. They almost had to admit me because they couldn't get my asthma attack to stop and I kept having asthma attacks over and over... they finally prescribed nebs and I just had to take them every four hours for like 2 weeks. It was horrid. I don't want to do that again. I didn't get sleep. I would wake up gasping for air. No way. Are there ANY vaccinations without eggs? Injections with eggs are bad news for me.

How do you know that you have lost immunity to childhood diseases?

Has your doctor drawn blood for titers on each virus?

If so, why would your doctor have reason to suspect that you are no longer immune?

How would an immune system suddenly cease to have antibodies against four or more viruses, yet become strongly reactive to egg and simultaneously increase the cellular immune responses of asthma?
