[|Human|] Most of my adult life I have had sensitivity to environmental allergies, and food allergies, Recently I have had three reactions.. that may deal with food and latex allergies ... I feel the redness and burning are causing more and more intense pain. I take Benadryl immediately after exposure. Is there anything else besides an epi pin I can use to decrease the pain level. The intensity of pain to the top layer of skin is very off the chart pains. Do I need to take a precaution ...often I do not know if food eaten or environment is the culprit. I firmly believe it is due to latex. I want to keep from anaphylaxis... what preventative measures do I need to have in place?
[|AI|]  Hello, I can understand your concern. It seems that you have allergies to more than one substance, and you do not exactly know what substances are acting as allergens for you. Thus, firstly, I would recommend you to go for a blood test for allergy. It will show in results what food and environmental substances are acting as allergen for you and so you can be alert in your day-to-day routine regarding exposure to these substances and avoid yourself from exposure. This is the best precaution you can take. In addition, you can also keep antihistamine such as Loratadine 10 mg (Forfeits) or Cetirizine 5 mg (Exocet) all the time with you so that as soon as the reaction starts, you can take the medicine immediately and control the reaction. Also, if you are allergic to more than one substance that you can be exposed to routinely, you can talk with your physician about taking an antihistamine regularly as hypertension patients take antihypertensives. Always take care to try new medicines and food items. I hope this information helps. Thank you for choosing Chat Doctor. Take care. Best,
