Latex allergy

[phoenix]

Hi terrilynnrandall,

I have mild Latex allergies and was wondering if that meant I had to buy an organic Latex free mattress OR the bedding is generally a good enough barrier. I realize, of course, you aren’t a doctor and don’t pretend to be one. I love that I found this forum.

There is more about the different types of latex allergies or sensitivities in post #2 here but in most cases (unless you have a more severe type I allergy and carry an epipen) a latex allergy isn’t an issue with the type of latex that is used in mattresses and because there is no actual contact with the latex itself.
