Hi,

All your symptoms can be caused by an allergic reaction and I will underline that it can be a systemic allergic reaction or even anaphylaxis. This condition can be dangerous for you and in your circumstances, my advice is to contact your local doctor or to go to the ER immediately after the symptoms appear.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Elona Xhardo,
Endocrinologist
