Suggest Cure For Edema In The Shins, Food Allergies And Arthritis

I have pitting edema on my shins, food allergies, environmental allergies, dizzy spells, joint pain osteoarthritis), swollen tongue, itchy skin, nose, eyes, ear canals, blurred vision (right eye has a little double vision), fatigue, abdominal pain, stools have become bigger and harder to pass, hands and feet turn blue and then bright red at times, numbness and tingling in both hands and feet, a felling of having a sunburn at times, sore throat and hoarseness when allergies are bad, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, anxiety. I ve had a battery of test and my thyroid test always come back in the normal range. I ve been using sea salt for a long time because the salt with iodine has dextrose and I m allergic to corn and a lot of other foods as well. The over the counter anti histamine have corn starch as the first ingredient. I keep telling my doctor that I have allergies and I think that maybe all my symptoms are from that. I called him to see if he would right a prescription for an epi pen. The nurse told me there wasn t anything in my record that shows I had allergies. I have told him several times and they are the ones her sent me to the first allergist. For a long time I thought I was crazy. When I went to another allergist for a second opinion, they did further test and that s when we found out I was allergic to a lot of things. What is wrong with me? HELP
