Hope you find out what's going on soon. That swelling can be very frightening.

Wow Karen, I thought I was allergic to a lot of things but mine are not nearly as bad as yours. I have some allergies to environmental, but my main allergies as I get older are more and more different types of foodl. Currently, I have to avoid corn, wheat, milk, chocolate and alcohol of any kind. Thank heavens I don't have life threatening reactions - mostly I end up with migraine headaches that can go for days.

I did the "stick" tests but my doctor at the time wasn't impressed with the results so he did the blood tests and they showed a higher reaction to different food allergies. So I do my best to avoid them and if I can't avoid I try to mix up my meals to balance them out.
