Swelling of face lips and arms
My little sister is suffering from sudden encounters of swelling over face and lips and arms, and also rashes over body though not very severe and it usually hapens over night and takes almost a day to resolve on its own ,and then nothing happens for a day Or two then again.so we went to a lot of doctors and got tested for various diseases, but in the end they all put her on corticosteroids and antihistamines. And whenever she stops them this cycle starts again none is able to diagnose the cause.
She is anaemic and her haemoglobin is very low around 5 . I was thinking if that could be the reason, the symptoms kinda match with hemolytic anaemia .
Please tell what to do next.
