Today I went to the lab to get my blood drawn, hoping I would find out any allergic reaction I might have and what my blood type is. Turns out I am allergic to dairy, so from now on I will have a non-dairy, vegetarian, somewhat vegan diet.
My blood type is A positive, which is my mom's type. Because I'm adopted, it is hard to know my biological family's health complications.
