What issue am I sufering from & AnyCure?
I have been experiencing food-related reactions for the past ~8 years. My symptoms include small itchy rashes (mosquito-bite–like), very rarely mild hives, frequent mouth ulcers after certain foods, and digestive issues such as gas, bloating, and IBS-like symptoms for some foods.
I sometimes experience headaches, palpitations, and fatigue. These reactions are usually delayed (6–10 hours after eating trigger foods). Ex: chicken, tomato, banana etc.
For different foods, there is different reaction happening. Allergic to only unmatched foods but nothing else.
I can tolerate rice, bottle gourd, ridge gourd, carrot, curd, and urad dal. Foods like chicken and tomato trigger symptoms, which are relieved by Levocetirizine. Earlier, antibiotics temporarily reduced my reactions, but this no longer happens. My IgE level was above 120 last year.
I would like to know whether this condition is autoimmune, urticaria, or food intolerance, and what treatment or long-term solutions are available.

Your symptoms suggest that gut dysfunction is the root cause, and the skin reactions are a secondary expression of this internal imbalance.
Focus on correcting the gut with a low-histamine diet, along with regular exercise, stress control, and daily pranayama like Sheetali to calm Pitta and reduce hypersensitivity. For lasting and more personalized results, it’s advisable to consult an Ayurvedic physician for a tailored treatment plan and more permanent relief.

Your symptoms suggest a complex food-related hypersensitivity pattern rather than a single, straightforward diagnosis. The delayed onset (6â10 hours after food), mixed symptoms (skin rashes, mouth ulcers, IBS-like digestion issues, fatigue, and palpitations), and partial relief with Levocetirizine point toward a non-IgEâmediated food sensitivity or histamine-related intolerance, rather than a classic immediate food allergy.
While your elevated Immunoglobulin E (IgE) indicates some allergic tendency, the delayed reactions and variability across foods make chronic inducible urticaria or food intolerance with gut involvement more likely than a pure autoimmune disorder. The presence of bloating, IBS-like symptoms, and past temporary improvement with antibiotics also suggests a gutâimmune axis imbalance, where intestinal sensitivity may be amplifying immune reactions to certain foods. This is not uncommon in long-standing cases where digestion and immune responses become interconnected.
Next Steps
At this stage, the focus should be on structured identification and stabilization rather than labeling the condition prematurely. You should begin with a carefully monitored elimination and reintroduction approach, observing which foods consistently trigger delayed reactions and which remain safe. Maintaining a detailed foodâsymptom diary will help in identifying patterns across different food groups and reactions (skin, gut, oral, systemic). Equally important is working on gut regulation and immune calming strategies under guided supervision, as your history indicates a chronic pattern rather than an acute allergy. Since your symptoms are persistent and multifactorial, a personalized approach is essential. You are advised to connect with us at 9 3 1 5 6 6 1 5 6 5 for a more detailed evaluation and tailored management plan aimed at long-term resolution and improved quality of life.
Health Tips
Focus on maintaining a simple, consistent, and easily digestible diet, as you are already tolerating foods like rice, gourds, carrot, curd, and urad dal. Avoid mixing too many new or reactive foods at once, as this can confuse symptom patterns. Eat at regular timings and ensure proper chewing and digestion, as impaired digestion often worsens sensitivity reactions. Stress management and adequate sleep are equally important, as the gut and immune system are closely linked with the nervous system. Gentle physical activity, hydration, and avoiding overeating can reduce digestive load and indirectly decrease reactions. Over time, a stable routine combined with mindful eating can significantly reduce symptom frequency and intensity. Thank ypu
