A couple of weeks ago I went out for a meal with friend and had prawns, I went dark red and burnong hot, my throat felt very tight and I felt really unwell after about an hour I got breathless then after about another hour it went off.
I didn;t really give it much thought until last night I went out with dh and had a seafood dish. the same thing happened but quicker this tim and I think the throat tightness might have been a bit worse, I took a photo of myself (as you do) and my lip and face are a little swollen but not drastic. Went off again after a couple of hours.
Wondering if perhaps I need to get some testing as obviously this sort of reaction has the potential to be bad. Should I go and see GP or not bother and just avoid sea food? I also worry slightly about hidden ingredients if it is a problem.

I think I have developed a prawn allergy, what do I need to do?
