What Causes Photodermitis?

The very next day I began to have mild itching and bumps which since has began to look and feel like hives. Any exposure to the sun makes the situation extremely uncomfortable and the itching is now every where including where there isn t any sun exposure. Topical steroids provide minor relief and I just took 50mg po of bendryl. My ? is, I am only taking vitamin supplements, I am not on any prescription antibiotics per say. I am in cortisol support by now as well as a full spectrum mineral cap by now as well. I am also taking elderberry, olive leaf extract garlic,oregano oil an immune enhancer....from the larch tree and rosemary oil. All of this is po and am strictly taking it to boost my immune system, I am a paramedic and work in an ER and am exposed to everything under the sun. I also take a multi vit, a vitamin B complex, vit K and D. I am horribly miserable and cannot fi the cause. Please help. What is causing this photo allergy????

however, if until 2 month the issue doesn't disappear ..may be helpful some blood exam.
