Hives: No relation between chronic hives and food allergies, and your medication reactions may not be all allergies. Get evaluated by an allergist and get proper guidance.

Hives and allergies: The cause or source of hives (urticaria) is generally difficult to determine. Anything can cause them. If you are concerned about the possibility of other foos allergies, it's off to your friendly allergist you go!
