Are Diarrhea And Itchy Skin Rashes Symptoms Of Food Allergy?

I had eaten seafood on Saturday night. Sunday night I had stomach pain and severe diarrhea. By Monday noon, the diarrhea stopped. Now my body ism suffering skin rash with itches everywhere. Can you advise if this is food allergy? I love sea food and eats it so often in the past, but no problem. By the way, my two other family members ate the same seafood, they all had severe diarrhea.
