Do Almonds Cause Facial Swelling?

I am 58 and weigh about 135lbs. I recently had a mild heart attack back in Feb.2011 and 4 stents were inserted into my artery. My question is, can almonds cause lower facial swelling, throat and tonque or may it be a condition arising from my heart attack? I do not remember ever being allergic to almonds. It seems to happen if I combine Flaxmilk and almonds, although I'm not drinking or eating the two together.

HI
Well come to HCM
If you are allergic to almond then this is possible otherwise this may not cause any reactive phenomenon, but almond does not cause any allergy this is very rare condition, the stent history also is not the cause of facial swelling, hope this information helps.
