What Causes Type 3 Hypersensitivity Reactions With Circulating Complexes In The Joints?

I have been diagnosed with having type 3 hypersensitivity reactions with circulating complexes that do not clear and are stored in my joints and oddly enough in the sublingual area below my chin causing it to swell painfully for a duration of about 7 days. No doctor has told me what is causing it. Even saw an allergist. Who can tell me and what do I need to ask for as far as tests.

Circulating complexes are allergens along with their antibodies. And to find out what they are is a difficult thing and in many circumstances they may not be identifiable. Do u think that ur doctor would be knowing it and is not telling u. No its very difficult to find allergen as anything on earth that's physical can be an allergen.
