Hello, My Upper Lip Has Begun To Slowly Swell (in

Hello,

My upper lip has begun to slowly swell (in the past hour). This happened about 6 months ago and went away in 5-6 hours. When it occurred 6 months ago, I called my doctor, but there was no concern since it gradually faded away in the 5-6 hour time frame. However, I am concerned. What could cause my upper lip to swell sparatically? I am 34, female, professional with a healthy medical record. I take 2 prescriptions:
1. Zoloft- I started a year ago for post partum depression (which I am doing very well-- Zoloft, diet and excercise to defeat pp depression)
2. 30 mg vivanse when needed

Other then that, I take a healthy dose of omegas, a multi vitamin and B vitamins..

Why would my upper lip spastically swell?

Thank You!
