Hi All,

I am considering a trip to Thailand (Koh Samui, Ko Tao, Chiang Mai and potentially another island) with my girlfriend in about 10 days. She is EXTREMELY allergic to shellfish (shrimp, lobster, clams, oysters, mussels, etc).

I understand most thai dishes are made with fish sauce (usually including shrimp and other shellfish). We will obviously bring language cards noting her allergies, epi pen, etc - do you think this shellfish allergy will be a big problem?

I look forward to your responses.
