Have Itching, Diarrhea, Low BP, Hives, Swelling In Face, Have Allergic Reactions. Is It Because Of Histamine Production In Body?

in October 0000 I started having allergic reactions. My hands would start itching inside, then diarrhea, then my blood pressure would drop and I would have hives from head to toe. Had probably 15-20. In the last year, same symptoms except no have but my face swells. Nobody has helped me yet. I eat the same things and drinks the same things that I always have. Reactions do not happen after i eat the same foods. Only meds I take are high blood pressure and have taken the same meds years before the reactions started. ALl they can tell me is that my body is producing too much histimine and the diarrhea is flushing it out.
