In our area, allergies, no matter how severe, have been officially and specifically exempted from disability status. It's a big problem, especially when people with very severe allergies are trying to claim expenses on their taxes... and there's a big push to get it changed.

Not that this really helps you any in the situation, but maybe contributes something to the question of whether allergies are thought of as disabling or not...
