Multiple medicine allergic responses

I have decided to ask for a referral to allergy and immunology. I have some providers picked out that are in my insurance plan and will call tomorrow to see how long of a wait to be evaluated. I am choosing allergy & immunology over dermatology because I rarely have skin reactions. If I cant be seen in a reasonable amount of time, I will be contacting larger institutions to see what time frame they give me. I am out of options for blood pressure meds, so something has to be figured out before I end up in ER again—-which is no place to be if its a medicine reaction and you need an alternative med to control blood pressure. Or until I am told I am out of luck, there is no alternative. Regardless, I just need to know IF there are any options/treatments.

That's a good idea! I'll say a prayer for you that it turns out just fine for you. In the meantime drink a lot of water. It helps with blood pressure. I always drink a lot of water before I take my blood pressure and it's usually normal. Also look at the ingredients that are in the food you are eating. If there are preservatives and additives in the food, that could increase your blood pressure too.
I wish you the best.

@legeke I have the same problem with blood pressure meds..I am on my last one and I started to get itchy..I can't find an allergist that can figure it out..I don't know what to do..I can't do natural remedies because I also have gerd and all the natural stuff for high blood pressure are also acidic which irritates my stomach( I'm also allergic to omeprazle)..
