What kind of doctor do i go to get tested for all types of allergies? I know i have some becaue in the mornings my nose wont stop running and my eyes are always watering. I also think i have some kind of skin allergy too. I was in my kick boxing class and we were working on grappling, and a few minutes after i grapple with one of my teammates, I developed really bad elevates rashes all over my mid section and legs. So where and what kind of test should i get??

Since you're waking up in the morning with a runny nose - that sounds like it could be a dust mite allergy (due to your bedding)... easy to fix with covers...
I wouldn't recommend Benadryl personally because it makes me/others I know VERY drowsy... I find a 24 hour claritin or claritin-generic (CVS or WalMart brand) works wonders... Your allergist will point you in the right direction.
Good luck!
