Recurring Swollen Lips, Extreme Itching In Genitals, Hoarseness In Throat. History Of Heart Attack. On Benedryll, Prednisone Shots. Off Lisinipril. Any Ideas?

Yes please. My boyfriend has awaken on several occassions with swollen lips, extreme itching in his genital area and waist, this is accompanied by hoarseness in his throat. He has taken Benedryll and has gotten Prednisone shots and tablets for a week. It doesn't occur every day only once every two weeks or so. He has a history of a heart attack also. The doctor took him off Lisinipril because he felt it could be the issue of this allergy. Could you offer any help on this matter?
