Recently I had some pom bar teddy crisps which I've had several times before and I came out in Hives and same happened when had Rice Krispies with coco pops mixed in.
Have they checked you for an auto immune disorder or under active thyroid?
I have had about all the testing they can do, now it's just a case of staying safe and never leaving allergy epipen at home. BTW if you are allergic to ibuprofen you may have problems with aspirin too and all the others in that family of drugs nasaids I think they are called - as soon as aspirin was identified as a problem for me I was warned off all that family of drugs by my allergist.
