Consult allergist?: Good morning, if the hives, throat pressure, nausea and vomiting are of recent origin, an allergic or immune reaction needs consideration. An allergist generally runs tests to identify the cause and may add additional medications such as a short course of steroids or singulair (montelukast) for temporary relief. Reflux alone as a rule is not associated with hives; howeve, food allergy can cause these symptoms.
