Swollen Hard Tongue, Sunburn On Skin And Swollen Neck, Lightheaded, Heart Racing. Is It Allergic Reaction ?
I ve been to the doctor and they are yet to be possitive on what s going wrong with me. Last time I went in I was thinking I had a severe allergic reaction (to what is still unknown) and that is what I was treated for in the end.. The day after I was finished with my medication it started coming back. My tongue has swelled tremendously and is very hard, my neck is swelling , my skin looks like I have a bad sunburn . I am not able to eat anything because of my mouth being swollen so I am sick to my stomach and it s making me very shaky, pail, my heart is racing constantly and I m extremely light headed.

Hi there,
There is alot going on at the moment and i think according to the information given by you all is in going in favour of Acute Urticaria(Angioedema).
If you have any of the problems like,
facial or lip sewlling
difficulty breathing in
tummy pain and upsets
hoarseness of voice
then you shoukd seek urgent help in the emergency unit so that they can evaluate and give you certain medications for that,because it shouldnt be left untreated.
Once the acute phase is over and treated well then you can fix an appointment with your dermatologist and he can proceed further.
i hope the information will help you.
All the best.
