Close Food Allergies

I am allergic to 42 different foods. It started roughly two years ago, but because my symptoms never included hives, no one knew what was happening. My first doctor told me I was depressed. So I went to another doctor and discovered my problem. Now I am on an elimination diet which means if I am allergic to two foods in a specific food family, I cannot have anything in that food family. I'm on the diet until the end of September. I've already been on it for a month and I don't feel any better.

Allergy Shots Too Soon to Tell

I'm actually using the allergy drops under the tongue. At first my tongue swelled slightly, but now I don't notice anything at all.

Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Somewhat Helpful

It seems to be working for the most part...but every once in a while I'll get sick after eating something I can supposedly eat so I don't understand what's happening.
