My husband has a disorder that no one can identify. Every four months he has it and it starts with his eyes burning and tingling all over and then he will have a rash that comes from within and it is itchy. Then he gets moutn sores where he can t eat or talk. It goes away after 10 days 2 weeks. They have put him on steroids , benadryl, even doxycycin and no one knows how to prevent it from happening and I have noticed that it happens after a stressful incident but not sure it would cause these symptoms can u help please????

Hi,
Thanks for writing.
Yes, stress may aggravate an underlying predisposition to allergies, and lead to the symptoms which you have mentioned. However, he needs evaluation, by and internist and then by a psychiatrist.
Hope this helps,
