What we can confirm
The claim is supported: alpha-gal syndrome is a rare allergy that can follow a tick bite and can make a person react to mammalian meat; some patients also react to dairy. A CBC report specifically describes a Nova Scotia woman whose tick-bite allergy left her unable to eat meat or dairy, matching the claim closely.
