Of course, you have my prayers for healing and for finding a solution to your problems.

If high histamine foods cause reactions, are your histamine levels already elevated?

Is it possible something in your surroundings other than food is causing reactions or making them worse by keeping you at a level of histamine just below what it takes to set off a reaction and that food reactions just put you 'over the top'? I am sure you have considered this, but please exhaust those possiblities as well. From trace elements in our water to the aromatics in plants around us, all we are around affects our body chemistry.

Again, my prayers for your healing and solutions to the problem are on the way.

It was at this time last year I started having a lot of trouble. August is historically a bad month for me. I’m sure my system is overloaded right now and that it takes next to nothing to push me over the edge.

As a matter of fact, I was in such bad shape last fall that I was beginning to wonder if I’d make it to the end of the year.

I’ve had plenty of tests done. My IgE levels are generally high, although my histamine levels aren’t out of the ordinary. I take two anti-histamines a day, one in the morning and one at night.
