I was always stuffy all year round and in i kept getting allergy conjectavitis and ear pain. well a year and a half ago  dairy and soy started giving me stomach issues so i was advized by my doctor to cut them out..... cuting them out has helped my ear pain and nose. exept this march my ears started hurting again and i got conjectivtis over and over again the doctors said it was allergys to take antihistamines.... the last 3 weeks i have been getting hives all over my body but i thought it was from the sun.. tonight while i was cleaning the kitchen by throat started to hurt and get a weird taste and started to swell and ears hurt.

    You might want to get an allergy test to narrow in on exactly what you're allergic to. Also, you might have other issues that needs to be addressed. Keep a record of what you eat, are you around animals, what's in your environment, drugs, medications, weather etc. You might want to see a specialist doctor, especially an allergist and Dermatologist. I hope things improve for you soon..

    Your post was ten days ago, how are you now?  I just recently visited Northern Florida and came home with an allergic reaction to either sunscreen or the sun (which has never happend) and I'm 43.  My histamines went overboard with throat conjestion and  sinus drainage in my throat.  I saw my Dr. today and got a decadron shot. Now I'm super wired and need to go to sleep, but don't see that happening soon.  I have this off and on for almost a year and have taken every combination of decongestants, expectorants, cough suppressents, prednisone, singlulair, pepcid, antihistimines, nasal sprays.  Most recently, the coughing was so bad it was making gag.  My throat has been sore.  I mixed some local honey in with really warm water and it soothed it.  I also have hypothyroiditis and am getting an ultrasound of that Wedensday as well as seeing the ENT.  Because of where my throat hurts (right above my collar bone).  I hope you are better.
