Thankyou for the question
Brief...all your symptoms are highly positive for allergy (hypersensitive reaction)
Detail....I would like to know if you have any other family member who suffers from these same symptoms or any member who have eczema (skin allergy).As these symptoms can be genetically too..
To find out which are the things which trigger your symptoms..Make a note diary for triggering things.To know which exactly are the triggering foods ,you should get done pin prick test. ( a food allergy test).So in the future you can avoid them.
I would highly recommend you to visit a allergy. specialist doctor to discuss about adranaline kit .As some time triggering stuff can be so strong to cause anaphylaxis shock which can be life threatning.
Hopefully my answer would be helpfull for you.
