severe skin allergies

Hi over the course of the last year i have become allergic to virtually everything in my enviroment. At fiirst  was just soaps and building materials, howver it has movered to fabrics, leather, paper and a myriad of other irritants. Openinig one envelope is enough to trigger a severe reation...
I have been taking benedryl contantly and hydroxine?
I have an allergist appointment in a month, however neither of those medications are fully effective anymore...
The traditional skin reactions have left, and are relplaced, by a massive release of adrenaline and a tightness in the muscles....
Is there anyway tyo reduce the reation or to figure out the real cause.....
I’ve eliminated soaps and purfumes from use to no avail, still even being around soaps, paint, purfume is enough to Cause a reaction...
I need this to end i can barely leave my appartment...

Hi,

You should try  taking OTC antihistamine medications like loratadine and see if it helps with your symptoms.

It is most important that you consult your allergy specialist and get a proper clinical evaluation done.

Do let us know waht your doctor tells you.

Hope this helps.

Good luck.
