Facial swelling and pain

I am writing for my mom. She has had swelling on her lips and nasal passages and then recently it went to her eyes. It is also very painful for her.  It is very red also. Doctors thought it was an allergy but she is now on such a strict diet she is rapidly losing weight.  Any ideas? She has been through menopause and had buning mouth syndrome.

It does sound like allergy did the doctor prescribe antihistimines for her which will help with the symptoms ?
