Anyone here have HAE and allergies? I'm beginning to suspect that there's more going on than just allergies.

My mother developed that problem when I was about 3 - she looked so frightening I started crying. Two of my kids have bad allergic
problems, & food intolerances, as I too do. JaneD. - No sure what HAE is!

HAE is hereditary Angioedema. I have an uncle who mysteriously died in his sleep - suffocated, and it was chalked up to old age, but there was "nothing wrong" with him.
I don't get the really deformed face, but I do swell a lot and it is very uncomfortable. It is scary. Poor you and your mom. *hugs*
