Okay about 5 years ago I started getting these really strange attacks, at the most random moments, My family thinks its allergies but I'm not allergic to anything, and if I am none of my "outbreaks" have a similar factor.
Here's what happens:
first my mouth goes completely numb, and gets that feeling like when your leg falls asleep, that prickly needle feeling, then it stops and immediately my hands and the bottom of my feet turn bright red and get extremely itchy, then the inside of my ears get itchy, and the inside of my eye lid (like where a girl would wear eye liner) and then within a matter of minutes my lips are swollen (like bigger than Angelina Jolies..) and my eyes get swollen as well, and before I know it my whole body has hives and I'm itchy everywhere. Benadryl makes it go away but I want to know what this is!! Doctors at the ER see the hives and dont even ask about my other symptoms and just tell me to take Benadryl.
Any advice is welcomed and appreciated!
Thank you!
