Is it normal to go into anaphylaxis an appreciable time after eating the food that supposedly caused the allergic reaction? Everyone I've ever met that has a severe allergy has an adverse reaction immediately after exposure to the allergen.

Onset is minutes to hours, usually within one or two hours of exposure. "In rare cases, anaphylaxis may be delayed for hours." (source https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/anaphylaxis/symptoms-causes/syc-20351468#symptoms https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/anaphylaxis/s...) Additionally: "anaphylactic reactions can also present in a biphasic manner in up to 20% of cases. Even after successful management of the initial presenting symptoms, there can be a recurrence of symptoms peaking 8 to 11 hours after the initial reaction."

While delayed anaphylaxis is not unusual, it's the wording of this article that is a touch misleading. This article states "later that evening, Tangsuan had an acute allergic reaction in Planet Hollywood". This gives the impression of some time passing, and that they perhaps went to Planet Hollywood (presumably to eat again). According to an earlier article this isn't the case. Instead they ate at about 8pm, and by 8:45pm she had the reaction and entered the Planet Hollywood to seek medical assistance, with the ambulance called nearly immediately. https://wdwnt.com/2024/02/doctor-dies-allergic-reaction-raglan-road-disney/ https://wdwnt.com/2024/02/doctor-dies-allergic-reaction-ragl...
