Hi,
I was hoping someone could help i am unsure whether or not i have an allergy and if so what to.
Firstly i started to get really bad stomach pains, short of breath and sweating straight after eating certain food, i realised it was egg and so totally cut egg out of my diet and the pains went.
Then i got a terrible sore bleeding nose with congestion and sneezing and doc said it was allergic rhinitis ( i have never had hay fever before)
The symptoms i have now are itching around jaw line, throat, shoulders, tummy and arms. I have dry patches of skin on the upper arms and a pinprick type patch of skin on lower arm. Stinging itchy eyes, rhinitis, very dark circles under eyes, palpitations, sweating, fatigue.
Last night i had chinese chicken with chips and within 10 mins i was weak, sweating, terrible stomache ache and strong palpitations. Today the stomache ache has not passed and i still feel weak and shaky.
Do you think this sounds like food allergy or am i just being over anxious?
and if so how can i determine what i am allergic to?
My doc just asked if i had cats and then blamed them. gave me a medcine which made me feel worse. The cats are only in one room of the house so i dont think its them.
Many thanks for any advice
