Non Specific Body Itchiness, Have Penicillin Allergy, Sensitive To Peanuts, Allergy Induced Asthma. Any Thoughts ?
I was diagnosed with a Penicillin allergy in 1991. Subsequently,I developed sensitivity to peanuts. I am 66 years
old,female. I tend to have problems with nonspecific itchiness....the middle of my back, then the palms of my
hands will itch. No rhyme nor reason it seems. I was also diagnosed with allergy induced asthma when I developed the penicillin allergy. I have done well the last few years and have not needed any inhalers. I seem to have weird symptoms now that I'm older, such as the itchiness,but also experience my tongue becoming irritated for no apparent reason, or a sore throat will develop. I must say none of my symptoms are particularly serious, just annoying. Any thoughts?

allergies when not treated tends to recur and can start giving symptomps at any time
when you have allergy to one sustance it may increase to multiple things as immunity decreases
you can take continuously antiallergic like ebastine 10 mg once a day
or get tests to get full cure by immunotherapy
