See an allergist: Or have your doctor run some blood tests on you for food allergy. Always handy to have Benadryl (diphenhydramine) , Claritin , Allegra , zyrtec on hand. You may need a script for epi-pen 2 pak in case of emergency. Do not separate the twin pack because you may need a second dose. In meantime , avoid walnuts and other nuts till you are tested.
